Keep a roof over Nicholas's head in London

A final eviction notice arrived last week. Nicholas needs $3,350 to clear the arrears and stay housed in London.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 8 weeks, Nicholas fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,350. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by March, the family must leave. There are a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Nicholas has started working evenings as a cleaner, and is 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 $3,350 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $240 • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,950 • Utilities in arrears: $160 Thank you for reading my story. - Kinsley

Updates from Kinsley

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($295 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($220 in total) the plan for rent arrears is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Quick update: $145 raised so far (4%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
