My brothers are going to be homeless

Help my brothers please, UK



My mother had a new boyfriend that dealt in coke. He would do anything just to sell another gram. My mum didn't know until she found a bag in the jeans of his pocket during a wash. After the rough breakup my parents went through around a year back this seemed too much for her. Last week she attempted suicide. She's currently in hospital with permanent liver damage after trying to drink herself to death and taking upwards of 40 painkillers in the space of 10 minutes. She's got no money, she lost her job once they found out. My two younger brothers (17 and 18) are still in the house she rented. She's got until the end of January to come up with the £450 for a months rent or they're going to be thrown out, with nowhere to go. Even then the electricity and gas will be cut off not long after. My dad will no doubt offer them a place on our couch but that's no way to live, and there's no room in this house for 2 more people. I'm a student but I'm going to take on a part time job to help them with their accommodation. I'll do my best to help them, but just for this month there's no way I can do it alone. I'm just asking for help with this one months rent. I will do anything and everything to keep my brothers in a warm house. I'm just trying to give them just one more month to make arrangements, perhaps with the local authorities, for housing. Anything, from a penny to a pound, will help. I will do the best that I can to help my family, and I am not above begging. I don't need the help, but they do, desperately, and they simply don't deserve this.

Hi, I never thought I'd do this in a million years... but I guess I'm desperate... I'm 25, i have little ones and I'm about to lose my home due to back taxes... My father left it to me when he died, I have lived there since I was 17. I lost my job, I'm in school and I just haven't been able to keep up with it. i'm a single mother doing my best, and it all seems to just keep getting worse. We live in a very small town, I have looked for work everywhere. Anything I receive, will go straight for paying what I owe to keep our home. Thank you all in advance. Hope this works! fingers crossed :/

Hi everyone, My name is Liz, a 26 year old single female who's still in school, and I have nowhere's else to go for help. Asking my parent's is not an option, my mother passed away a few years ago and my father's in his late 60's working away so he can safely retire. So I feel guilty asking him as it is. After High School, I started working right away. Nonstop actually, I barely had a social life. I gained an excellent work ethic and was always positive in the workplace. I was the first person people went to when a problem arose.... But then I made the huge mistake of getting a credit card. Suffering the consequences of those never-ending payments now. Aside from that, I felt I wasn't where I was supposed to be in life. I'm a pretty passionate person, and I felt that if I were to put my energy into something for the rest of my life. It had to be something that I was absolutely passionate about. So I went back to school for the Arts. I love every aspect of creating. And my purpose is to inspire others. Due to my prior debt, I didn't get that huge of a student loan. But it was enough to cover my tuition. Living expenses not so much. I consider myself lucky to be able to come up with rent every month. As well as getting healthy groceries from time to time. And as a full-time student, holding down a job is extremely hard. What I'm worried about right now is rent at the end of this month. And with Christmas coming closer, I felt it was more important to get a couple presents for my family. But the stress of bills and 550$ for rent is looming over my head right now, and it's sad to say, but i'm actually pretty desperate.
