Good day,
I hope this message finds you well. I am in desperate need of financial help please. I was a teacher since 2017 and a single mum as soon as my boy was born in 2014. When my son was little I was able to go to work full time as my little sister had free time to support with childcare.
As my son grew older, his needs increased as he was diagnosed with ASD since he was 3. Unfortunately in August 2022 I had to resign from my teaching post as my son needed more attention and support with his academic journey. Although I enjoyed teaching and supporting children by contributing to their learning growth, it did leave me with little money at the end of the month: after paying all expenses I was always left with very little and therefore unable to put a reasonable amount in my savings account.
Ever since resigning I have been actively looking for a part time home job since September 2022 with the help of a work coach, and as of today I have not been lucky enough to find a customer service/admin position. I receive around £500 monthly as help credit from the state, however I still pay all my expenses which are the following : rent for £210/ phone bill for £80/ water bill for £70 / council tax for £66, leaving me with around £70 to spend monthly for upkeep. Of course this has been impossible to sustain and I have been asking for help from a few friends and family who have contributed £50 monthly to support my son’s expenses.
It is getting to a point where I feel I am getting affected mentally but when I think of my son I try to battle whatever is trying to affect my sanity. Life is just really hard, it has been for a long time. I really am trying to get a job, I just don’t understand why this is happening this way. I don’t know what else to do. Sometimes we have no money for food, at times my son does not attend school trips as I do not want to inform the school we do not have enough finance to cover the costs. We don’t have enough money for my son’s clothes (e.g. school shorts, boxers, vests) so we still use what we have which of course are small in size for him but we’ll have to manage for now. My son it always happy, he is non verbal so I am glad he doesn’t quite understand what has been going on in our lives.
What I am after is a financial blessing that would help sustain my son and I for a while. I will keep looking for a job of course, I just need desperate help. Please somebody help us! Please.
Thank you in advance with all my heart
