What do I do?
I have been a property guardian since last year. I moved there as I couldn't afford rent elsewhere, and my husband has been living with me, although he couldn't have, and I was already pregnant but I did not know. I've been trying to contact councils etc, I'm on allowance as I have started a new job in September and didn't qualify for mat leave, and my husband is on 0 hours contract, and they keep cutting his hours, and can't find anything else. I was checking if I had endometriosis and the doctors thought that I wasn't fertile, but as soon as I stopped the pill I got pregnant. It was the best surprise I could ever imagine and I'm failing my son in all levels. We'll be homeless in 30 days, have no savings, no family close by, nothing. I'm losing my mind. We moved to this area only because the property guardian property was in this borough (Richmond) but have lived for many years in the Kingston upon Thames borough, in south West London.

Hi! Sorry I can’t be of much help but I would look into charities that help families ASAP as well as Shelter. The important thing is that you and your son are not in the street (especially since it’s getting colder). Alternatively I would go back to stay with your family for the time being and focus on getting back on track. I know it’s not ideal but I wish you the best!
