Request Details
We are a married couple of transgender men, I am going through my PGCE in secondary education in an attempt to improve and provide us a more secure life, my husband is currently pregnant with our second child, just as this happened our landlord has increased our rent by £150 a month which is not sustainable for us. We desperately need money to move, ideally before our second baby arrives in the summer and to help us through in the mean time as we are surviving off my university income, and can receive no help from my university or any government backed scheme. I think our moving costs for a new property would be around £1500. I have inputted the maximum that you have said you can pay out, as all money would be put towards us moving and surviving, but please send whatever you can. 
£200.00 GBP

Total amount £200.00 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/
