To all you lovely people out there, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I'm looking for a little help as I am trying to start my own small business. I am facing problems regarding start-up funding as I am currently unemployed due to health reasons. (Please google Fibromyalgia) I have tried getting a loan, but I have been refused due to being unemployed! It is so frustrating. I am looking for donations to help start my business, which is a niche preloved items based business. This will be based mostly online but also markets and fairs. This is my only chance to get off benefits and live independently and gain control over the debts that are piling up. Any donations received will be re-donated in the future when I am up and running. Please contact me if you require any further information. Thank you in advance.

I am a student on an unpaid placement. This means I do full time work without getting paid a penny until I've finished my University course in 2 years time. In the meantime I have to pay for my car to travel to my placement and any rent during that time. On top of this my girlfriend and I are hoping to get a flat, except for these few facts. She is jobseeking her socks off and can't even afford to get herself tested for glasses until she gets work. Who would hire someone who can't see? And to top it off, my parents have decided to split and it's likely that when they both get different places to live there won't be room for me to stay anyway. My priority so far is my girlfriend's glasses, her health is most important to me, even if I have to live in a box on the street for her to see.

My fiance lost her job due to company cut backs, she has been struggling to find work since. It isn't easy for her as English is not her first language, and like me lacks any specific skills in the workplace. We had hoped to visit her parents in Europe this year, but our savings are gone and rent, council tax and energy bills are set to rise even further. She hasn't seen her parents in 3 years :( My girlfriend is incredibly sweet, caring and cheerful always, but I know that deep inside she misses them dearly... I am working long night shifts on near minimum wage and doing much overtime to cover all of our bills and living expenses, but since she lost her job it has be a growing struggle to cover the costs :( Each month the interest outweighs the amount we can pay back, we have been trying our best... Please help us pay off our £2000 debt :'(
