Request Details
Gold afternoon,

My name is Cam and I am looking to get a little bit of financial help towards my living expenses.

I am saving up to to move and I am finding it increasingly hard to save anything with prices increasing across the board.

I used to be able to do overtime and an increased 1.5 rate to top up my income but recently in work it has been announced that overtime is being stopped for the time being. There is no date to when this is likely to continue if ever.

This has come as a huge blow towards my efforts of saving for my own property. I currently live with my father and brother and I pay lodge/rent and I make further contributions to the utilities in the property.

I would like to humbly request a £60 payment to help offset the impact this will have on my financial situation.

Thank you for your consideration.

Al the best,
Cam Walters

Total amount £50.00 GBP

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.

For our full policy, please read the below document for full requirements when submitting for funding. https://transaid.cymru/types-of-grants/
