Keep a roof over Emily's head in Manchester
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Emily needs $4,050 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Manchester.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,050.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, 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 weekend shifts, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent.
Where the $4,050 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $3,100
• Utilities in arrears: $230
• First month of rent as a buffer: $720
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
