MY BENEFITS HAVE STOPPED AND I NEED HELP!!
*URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST*
Friday, February 28th: Hello everyone, I’m Gemma and sincerely apologize to be asking for help again but, things have unfortunately gone from bad to worse for me and I desperately need help.
As most of you are already aware, I have been struggling financially for quite some time due to my welfare benefits being revoked, under the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And due to my mental health and some unfortunate DWP mess-ups, my benefits have been on and off sanctions for over a year now.
And despite receiving the results of my medical assessment earlier this month, which stated that I have a limited capability for work due to my persistent low mood and extreme fatigue, my benefits have been suspended without warning or reason. I am currently trying to appeal the decision and make a new claim. However, that will take a few weeks to be processed, and I am also trying to apply for PIP/ESA.
I currently don’t have any finances to pay anything, and I’m quite literally on the verge of a breakdown, as I am drowning in red notices and final demands as I used to only get £128 per month and that wasn’t enough to cover my rent and bills leaving me in heavy debt. And now I have no idea when I’m due another benefits payment until everything gets fixed.
At the moment, I desperately need help to keep my utilities on, pay my bills and my rent. My goal is £800 to keep myself afloat until my benefits are reinstated.
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 is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling.
£128/£800!!
