Request Details
I hate asking for help, I feel pretty defeated overall writing this but I am pretty desperate and don't know who to turn to.
I had £250 taken from me recently and my University are being very slow with processing my Student Support Fund, I thought the last grant would last me but it did not. I commute quite often to different places to buy food that I like that I can't buy anywhere else (selective eating disorder)
it is fine if the grant is turned down, I feel like I ask for way too much whenever I ask for a grant even though they're made for trans people like me and they're a complete last resort for me since I hate asking for help.
I will have my student support fund done soon but I have no exact date for it, I am doing my very best but it is hard.
Thank you

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.
