Thursday, November 8th - Hi everyone, I’m Gemma and I’m so sorry to haveto ask this again,but I desperately need help to get groceries + keep my lights on.
As many of you already know, I have been struggling these past few months to make ends meet and pay off my bills and get groceries due to my welfare benefits (Universal Credit and Housing Benefit) having been revoked under the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. I’ve been struggling horribly to keep my heating on as it’s getting into winter where I live, with most nights being 0°C/ 32°F. And as you can see from the image above of my electricity meter, it is back on its emergency credit and I am not due to receive a partial benefit payment until November 25th.
I know that I have asked this a lot these past few months and all the help I have previously received has helped me pay off a few new bills, kept my lights on and helped me to eat and stay warm so far and I absolutely hate to ask for more help but I have no one else to turn to. I’m literally freezing, hungry and drowning in debt at the moment because of my sanctions and since this situation has been ongoing for so long, government aid/food banks are unable to offer me any more assistance.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life and, sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody has to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling. Thank you for your help 💖
where’s the pic of that guy’s tinder bio where he says something along the lines of “well i’m a fat fuck with a big truck. welcome to the shitshow.”
Just a thought, if you were still here with me. Would life be less tragic? Would i have to go through countless of people to date. Do you know how much i miss you? I miss your midnight calls wishing me a marry christmas or new years. If you came back home early, we’d drive to newport. I miss your warmth. Its been 6 years and i still miss you so much.
