Bella received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A termination letter arrived last week. Bella needs $1,800 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Belfast.

After a sudden layoff at the textile factory, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,800.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave.
I have a toddler and a baby at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working extra hours at a market stall, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $1,800 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $160
• Rent arrears (5 months): $1,400
• Utilities in arrears: $240
I hope life is good to you.

Hang in there, Bella. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Thinking of you and your family, Bella. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Mumbai
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Bella
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. late fees and court costs comes first ($160) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.
Wishing you peace, Bella. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to Kaduna so I could bring a meal. God bless
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. After 8 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless!
Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Mumbai donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Belfast.
