We have a similar company where we live that collect unwanted furniture from houses and sell it on. Theres also freecycle.

You will probably find that when the time comes, family and friends will help you out a
lot anyway.

Dont worry, there WILL be a sollution for you and you WILL manage.

i know there will be , but got to think of these things dont you
would be ideal if i could use the service it states income based benefits doesnt say income support etc like some do

[Lisa2009]

Tax credits are income based so you should be ok on that score. Its deffinately worth looking into xxxx

[look_divine]

i emailed them to ask, cant hurt asking, that would be at least one thing i could use
i only have my mum shes 70 dad passed away and sister well shes one on her own, cant even explain her, would take a book
other than that a few close friends at work etc but otherwise im on my own im afraid

Hi Look Divine

Whe you check about accommodation with the local council, also find out if you're entitled to any benefits. I *think* there's a reduction in council tax if you're on your own. And possibly free school meals for the children. Every little helps - I sound like a tv ad [:D]

And do check Freecycle when the time comes, it can be very useful.

Good luck

You get a 25% reduction in council tax if you are the only adult at the address.
