Help Isak Out of This Hole

Hi, my name is Isak and I'm a gay trans man currently living in  Edinburgh. 

As of writing this, I am insecurely housed. Housing services in the UK are overrun and there are few options for homeless shelters — and one of the more accessible ones is explicitly Christian and unlikely to be LGBT-friendly or very welcoming to a Jew. I do not have anything resembling a proper support network.

My short-term goal is to raise enough to get a decent new phone, as mine is dying and buying cheap or refurbished models has only resulted in having to buy a phone more often than is reasonable (this is my second phone in eight months). My long-term goal is to raise enough money to be able to rent privately while I wait for council housing and have money left over to supplement my benefits.

Due to having an income of only £73 a week from ESA (disability benefits in the UK), I'm unable to afford private rent; as it's extremely unlikely a private landlord would rent to me with a lease and without a real lease, I cannot receive Housing Benefit.

I have no family support, as I am currently semi-estranged from my parents and asking them for money will worsen the situation (and in any case, they're either unable or unwilling to provide financial help last I reached out to them).

I'm out of opinions. I need to climb out of this hole I've been in for the past eight months since I became homeless, but I can't do it without money. It's gauche to ask for something this directly, but I have no other recourse. 

Donations of any size help. If you cannot donate, please spread the word. Thank you.
