Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Isabella's family in Manchester
A final eviction notice arrived last week. Isabella needs $950 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Manchester.

After a sudden layoff at the call centre, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $950.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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 two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $950 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $230
• Late fees and court costs: $145
• First month of rent as a buffer: $575
Thank you for reading my story.

Rooting for you, Isabella. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Rooting for you, Isabella. Hope you get there. After 15 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Rooting for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Take care.
