Hi lovelies,
Having to approach yous as advised ya’ll should be able to review an emergency grant from Jan 2025. I was hoping to apply for £400 for an emergency grant to cover my priority bills for this month. I am still on sick leave due to my health condition and not eligible for UC. I received £500 sick pay from my employer and bcs of this being classed as earnings I’m not entitled to anything. Due to that I have received a council tax bill payable of £295, Water bill of £100 and expenses for groceries as well as gas and electric which equate to £120, this cost of living isn’t it. I’ve covered my rent of £345, paid off borrowed money of £100 and my phone bill of £54. Leaving me with nothing at all I’ve tried calling the council and they’ve been no help. It’s becoming abit overwhelming now dealing with my health and this bills situation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Expense policies
We accept claims for the cost of medications, food, transport to appointments, counselling and anything related to your transition. We also support trans, nonbinary, and intersex (TIN) folk with bills and living expenses. We do not currently accept claims for money for pet expenses.
If you are applying for the first time, please provide the first half of your postcode and a link to one of your social media accounts in the "additional invoice information" box. This is to verify your identity and prevent scammers from taking money from trans people.
Please also let us know how much you need (max. £60 per month) and what you need it for (eg. bills, food, debt etc etc) in the "additional invoice information" box.
We don't allow reoccurring grants set through open collective, we ask that you don't set your grant to reoccur automatically as it adds strain to our grant team and can create duplicate expenses.
