Keep a roof over Sita's head in Belfast
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Sita needs $3,200 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Belfast.

When my hours were cut in half in September, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,200.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have three school-aged children 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.
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 $3,200 goes:
• Rent arrears (2 months): $2,450
• First month of rent as a buffer: $640
• Utilities in arrears: $110

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Madrid donated after I showed her your page!
sending strength, Sita. Looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Gazipur so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 9 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Belfast
Thinking of you and your family. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Belfast.
so sorry you're going through this, Sita. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Mardan.
