Nolan is a single parent of twin daughters - help us after my partner leaving
A single father in Bristol needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Nolan retrains.
🇬🇧 Bristol, England, United Kingdom3,396 views
Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by December, but I need to bridge the gap until then.
Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them.
Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $3,200 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,200
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,000
• Groceries and school meals: $750
• Course fees and exam costs: $250
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nolan
Sure. The biggest one is rent top-up, $1,200. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Bang Khen!
Thinking of you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.
sending strength, Nolan. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
gave what I could, wish it was more. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Nolan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
praying for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out
Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Bristol.
