Can you post for me anonymously please.
Hi all. Recently fled an abusive relationship with my 3 daughters aged between 3 and 15. I’m in temp accom, used a food bank, and have used the options available to me through women’s aid but am now in a position where I cannot feed myself or my children after paying the last of the bills. Prior to fleeing my ex had completely wiped out my bank accounts. I’m not a scammer, am happy to message if I feel confident enough to. Not asking for anybody’s money. I’m asking if anyone knows how I can get any help at this time of day at all, just for food for 2-3 days for us? Please be kind because I am so close to the edge it is unbelievable. I have no family because they have mostly passed away and the only extended don’t speak to me. And I have turned to my close friends already who are not in a position to help, they already have in other ways. I’m at breaking point. It is so hard to see a point in moving forwards.
Thanks for reading

Can you speak with IDAS they are super helpful and have a crisis line who should be able to point you in the right direction xx
This is so difficult because you can’t reveal your location but we would love to help if we can. As previously said, contact your out of hours council service.
Please contact citizens advice as they’ll have access to crisis resilient fund and will be able to best support you during this difficult time x

Maybe contact kids school see if they can help you
Depends where in the UK you are – a rough area would help people point you in the right direction.
For example where I am in Rossendale we have a food bank don’t need a referral too, and we have food boxes dotted about with food in anyone can help themselves to if they need it, they are topped up daily by volunteers so people don’t need to see anyone to get food.
Churches will help you ….go to your nearest church
