🇬🇧 Birmingham, England, United Kingdom886 views
After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a care assistant in Birmingham and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 2 months. I can pay $135 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have a landlord and employer references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
Glad we found this place.

Praying for you, Isla. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
Sending strength, Isla. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Birmingham.
