Keep a roof over Aria's head in Bristol

When the bakery closed in May, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,900. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave. I have a teenager still in school 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 $2,900 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $230 • Utilities in arrears: $90 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,580 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

        best of luck. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope August is when things finally get easier.

          Thinking of you and your family, Aria. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.

          • Michael Nonso Falana

            Sending love, Aria. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 4 people at work.
