Money Diary: A 28-Year-Old Disabled Woman On Benefits In Emergency Accommodation - Refinery29

I currently receive benefits and am in the process of my PIP (personal independence payment) appeal after it was denied. I got made homeless three months ago and have been in emergency accommodation provided by the council for the past three weeks. The council covers this rent. It’s extremely expensive and the private property management is raking it in, especially because the property is in such bad condition (mould everywhere, things not working, doors not locking properly). I’m here while I bid on properties on the council list. It’s an extremely stressful time, hence the going to bed so late and lots of TV. Also, where I’ve been housed is very far from my family and friends, so I’ve been pretty lonely. I do see my neighbours occasionally; we all share the same laundry room, front door, stairwell, and the property doesn’t get cleaned by management so essentially we are forced into a 'household', but we are protecting ourselves (wearing masks in each others presence etc), and I have actually since this diary stopped going into their flat for further protection.
