Keep the gas on at Yash's home in London

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $450. I have never been late before losing my job in May. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $120 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Yash's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $450 goes: • Heating arrears: $230 • Reconnection and late fees: $110 • Down payment on a payment plan: $110 Thanks for reading all this.
