I wonder if people are maybe finding the supermarket gift cards too difficult? I had hoped to never have to ask for help via paypal again as I’m getting closer to the time of my disability benefit appeal and if I win they can check the previous 6 months of my bank accounts and will question anything coming in. However the situation is getting dire and I don’t know what else to do. I’m reposting my previous request, but with paypal added in case anyone wants to help but finds the gift cards too difficult.

Repost:

I’m disabled, having thyroid cancer treatment that caused me to have a stroke and at my last assessment, my disability benefits got stopped (very normal in the UK). I’m going through appeal. The food bank takes weeks to access and only gives a small amount of tea, coffee, milk, sugar and some junk food like cookies. I’ve been getting help on mutual aid and comradeship/freechat to get food but it’s getting more and more difficult to get a response.

The prevailing view of society is that since I no longer work, I no longer deserve to eat. Another sick aspect of this is that if I win my appeal, they’ll check my bank account and I’ll have to explain any incoming money to them, and receiving could potentially get me in trouble (they just expect me to live on thin air in the meantime), so it’s safer for me to get food vouchers rather than money but I’m desperate enough to accept anything at this point.

If anyone can help, please send a supermarket gift card to my email address: DisabledAceSocialist@hotmail.com
