Request Details
I am a trans man studying at university in Wales full-time, but since I've started university I've experienced a number of setbacks and I'm struggling with finances. I don't have the option to go home so I'm staying over the summer, but at the minute I'm not getting any job interviews and my student loan is completely spent. £60 would allow me to buy food for the month and have money left over in case of additional expenses.
£60.00 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.
