Really didn't know where else to post this so if anyone has any better ideas, let me know!
I have a friend who is 5 months pregnant, living with her mum and brother who don't know she is pregnant due to cultural complications. She has just called me in tears because her maniac brother started bullying her again and being aggresive, so I've told her to pack her stuff and come and stay at mine.
Her dp lives a couple of hours away, and has been trying to look for somewhere for them to live but to no avail. He is not in a stable job and has bouts of depression. He has offered to come and get her today but we all decided it would be too dangerous/troublesome with the snow conditions.
She had to give up work (she was a carer and it was physically too demanding on her pregnancy), she has no money and is now homeless. She doesn't have ANY baby stuff, AND she is having regualar check ups and scans because her baby is very small.
What else can I do to help? Is there anyway she can be housed (I think the first thing she needs is her own place, and her dp doesn't seem to be sorting it). Does anyone know the best way I can go about it, and what other help there is for her? Would really appreciate it, thanks.
