Hello, I have been directed to you from umbrella Cymru, I’m currently really struggling financially, so much now, I have only been eating one meal a day and going hungry for 16 hours. I’ve lost over a stone this month from not eating.
I’m in UC and once my rent, council tax, electric bills are all paid, and I’ve bought all the food I can afford, I’m only left with 43p, my family are particularly not supportive either.
My only pair of shoes have a massive gaping hole in them, so much that all my socks have become holy from me walking through the shoe onto my sock as I’ve shown in the photo.
All my confirmation is with people on twitter

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.
