Need strong backs and a van: moving Josiah to safer housing
Josiah has found a safe new apartment in Leicester and needs help moving heavy furniture on Wednesday.

After the rent increase, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Leicester, and the lease starts on Wednesday. I have three kids, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers.
I'm hoping for four volunteers for about five hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel.
The old place is on the third floor with no elevator and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me.
I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from San Diego.
Wishing you the best, Josiah. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Sending strength, Josiah. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
