Hello everyone! I am a single mum-to-be expecting pretty soon (this month). I need some help with accommodation and living expenses before I go back to work. I was unable to work due to some pregnancy-related illnesses during my second trimester leaving me unable to prepare as I should for baby’s arrival. Help sought from the council for Housing Benefit has been turned down and it could take another three months to get that sorted. Income support is taking as long as it wants to get decided. I have been blamed for not coming for benefits early enough as I only applied in the seventh month of my pregnancy. I have been through hell!

I have received generous support from my local Christian Center and my local Children’s Services in terms of food and some baby items but still require financial help. My 6-month AST tenancy agreement recently ended but my Landlord has been very kind to agree another couple of weeks (despite my owing him rent) while I try to sort myself out.

I basically need around £650 a month to cover my accommodation and living costs while I look after the baby for some fo months before I return to work. This amount would have been covered by Housing Benefit and Income Support. I am looking for some £2600 in total to cover the six months before I return to work.

Please, don’t let Social Services take away my baby just because I need financial help for a little while, as hints have been dropped that the baby won’t be allowed to go home with me after delivery if I have no secure accommodation, the essential baby things, and no financial means to look after her.

Please, help. Thank you in advance. God bless!
