Request Details
Hello! My name is J. I am nonbinary, and I have recently returned to living in Wales having fled the United States with my partner and toddler (for reasons I hardly need to explain...)
Having just returned, I am in between jobs at the moment and I am struggling to support my family financially. We have managed enough money to cover next month's rent, but do not have money to pay for April's council tax. Is this something you are able to help with under an Emergency Funds Grant?
Thank you very much for your time,
J
I'm not 100% sure this is where you want me to provide the identity verification information... But here we go!

Expense policies
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.
