After my partner leaving in November, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a bookkeeper in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, but I need to bridge the gap until then. Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them. Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $550 goes: • Rent top-up: $290 • Course fees and exam costs: $140 • Childcare and after-school care: $120 Thanks for reading all this. - Uche

    You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.

    • Hope things get better soon, Uche. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Put this on a community board in London this morning. Blessings.

      • Stay strong, Uche. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
