I'm so grateful for the help I received previously and tried to make it last until the end of the month, but with prices being so high now, it was impossible.

I'm going through a disability benefit appeal. I have no money at all, I've maxxed out my overdraft and I have no family to help. I'm 5 months in rent arrears and so stressed about dealing with all of this on top of having medical treatment, feeling so ill and learning to cope with my recently acquired disability. I've written about my medical issues on here before but can give details again if anyone's interested. The food bank is difficult and time consuming to access, trying to live off the food bank left me going hungry for long periods.

I don't dare to accept money because the DWP (the government organisation who deal with benefits) are checking people's bank accounts and I hope to get my benefits reinstated, I'm worried if they see money going into my account it will cause problems for me.

So I would be immensely grateful if anyone could help me out with any type of vouchers/gift cards that can be used to buy food in the UK. Supermarket gift cards (there's Sainsburys/Tesco/Asda/Marks&Spencer in my town), a justeat voucher, an amazon voucher that I can use to get things from amazon pantry. Anything like that. I do also have an amazon wishlist that contains things I really need like laundry disinfectant, toiletries etc. I did ask for some help getting the laundry disinfectant on here but received no help with that. (I need to disinfect my laundry due to my lowered immunity and regular skin infections) Food is a more pressing issue though. Or even someone actually ordering food to be delivered to me.

I have nowhere else to turn, and no other source of income right now, and no ability to get any more credit from the bank. I would be so grateful and relieved for any offers of help.

It's not detergent I'm after, it's this strong disinfectant as I have a lot of skin infections.

Some people definitely believe this stuff. I used to know someone who really believed this kind of thing. He had some type of undiagnosed mental illness and as well as believing things like this, he believed that everyone he knew was being paid by the government to stalk and harass him.

Also real coward behavior by the guy here to to face away from the male model

Maybe he's hoping something slips up his back passage.

I went to the doctor complaining of awful fatigue. They refused to do any tests and diagnosed me with depression. When antidepressants made no difference, they diagnosed me with ME and sent me on my way with no help. I suffered like this for three and a half years and my life fell apart. It actually turned out to be thyroid cancer. So whenever someone gets diagnosed with ME now i always wonder if they actually have an underlying jealth issue but their doctors were just too lazy to look for it.

 

I've spoken about my financial problems on here before. Basically I'm going through a disability benefit appeal and have no money. The food bank is difficult to access regularly and it takes a long time to get an appointment. A couple of people on here have helped me out before with food, toilet paper and some toiletries for which I am so grateful. But I'm out of food now and have no means of accessing more. I would prefer not to accept money as the DWP (the nazis who run the UK benefit system) are checking people's bank and paypal accounts and how will I explain money going in. So I would be extremely grateful if anyone could give me any type of food vouchers that can be used in the UK. Like a supermarket voucher for Sainsburys/Asda/M&S or Tesco. Or a justeat voucher. Anything I can spend on food.

As mentioned on here previously, I'm going through a disability benefit appeal and have no money at all. So I have no way of getting any little thing I need. I'm very thankful to have been helped on here to get some food previously. I've run out of toiletries, I need toothpaste, dental floss, shampoo, soap, sanitary pads, laundry detergent, toilet paper and painkillers. However now the DWP (the nazis who run the UK benefit system) are checking people's bank accounts, I don't think I can dare to accept money any more in case I can't explain to them why people are paying me money. If anyone would be willing to help, I have an amazon wishlist, or the things i need could be ordered from Boots, or anywhere that does toiletries.

 

Thank you so much! I don't know what I would have done without you.

I made a post last week asking for help with food, and I'm so grateful that a couple of people responded and I was able to buy food and other basics I need like sanitary towels, soap and toothpaste. However on Tuesday I'm going to be debited £55 in overdraft fees/interest. (I'm living in an overdraft while I wait for my disability claim to get sorted out. I've spoken about why I'm in this mess on here before if anyone's interested.) I just don't have enough left to cover the overdraft fees and when they're taken I'll have nothing left again for food. I feel awful asking for help on here again but I have no-one else to turn to. If anyone is able to help I would be so thankful and relieved.

EDIT: Several people responded and now I have enough to eat for a few weeks while I wait for my benefit appeal to go through. It may take months but at least I'm OK for now. Thanks so much everyone, I really appreciate it.

I made a post here a few days ago but no response. I'm starving, I've got no family to help, no money and no way of getting food. I explained my situation in my previous post. I've tried everywhere for help and have received none. I just don't know what else to do. Even the three churches I tried turned me away with nothing. I'm at the end of my rope here.

 

I was vegan for years until my disability benefits got stopped. Now I'm going through an appeal and have no money. My overdraft is maxxed out. The food banks takes so long to access, but when they do give me food I eat whatever they give as I'm so hungry, whether it's cheese, chicken soup or whatever. Beggars can't be choosers. I now realise what a huge luxury being able to choose your own food is. I've even tried begging for financial aid on hexbear and even in the street, no-one will help. So now I eat whatever i can get.

 

I'm a partially sighted stroke and cancer patient, currently going through a disability benefits appeal. I have no money and my overdraft is maxxed out. The next food bank appointment is 30th Sept, and I have nothing to eat until then. I already haven't eaten in three days. I've tried everything, olio, churches, checking supermarket bins, etc. I'm desperate. I even tried selling my prescribed medications online on another website but got banned for that. I have nothing else to sell. Someone please help.
