Help Alexander get back to civilian life: housing deposit and training
An air force veteran in Liverpool needs help with a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment after leaving service with a traumatic brain injury.
🇬🇧 Liverpool, England, United Kingdom1,433 views
I served twelve years in the air force and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote I have comes to $3,400.
I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing.
Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly.
Where the $3,400 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,600
• Housing deposit and first month: $910
• Transport to appointments: $340
• Essential household items: $550
With deep gratitude,
Alexander

is there anything that isn't money that would help Alexander?
Thank you. If you're in Liverpool I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 15 people at work. God bless
I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Dhaka but we're thinking of you.
You're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Madurai so I could bring a meal.
Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Blessings
praying for you. This could happen to any of us. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Hope you get there. Thinking of Liverpool
