Made homeless by abusive DP

[Harleyquinn6]

Hi everyone just looking for a bit of support really.

My now ex DP who I was financially dependant on and lived with him with a house in his name cams home yesterday from walking the dog, declared he was getting back with his ex and has kicked me out.

He has been abusive for months and now this final kick in teeth than I have to leave. My cats are still there, all of my things, furniture. I had to leave in just what I was wearing as I called the police when the situation became aggressive when the ex showed up.

I have no money at all because I’m on UC and gave him everything. I’ve already called Careline but I’m just so fucked.

He’s completely torn my life up in the space of a day

Anyone?

Do you have family nearby?

I presume the house was rented or owned just by him?

Oh my goodness I am so sorry to hear this. How awful for you. Do you have any family or friends who are able to take you in? I hope that you get somewhere to stay and that you are able to recover from this.

I have no one really.

We moved into it new together but as my credit is rubbish he’s the main tenant and I’m just permitted occupant

What did the police advise? did you have somewhere to stay last night?

I am so sorry to hear what's going on for you. How awful.

First thing..
Where are you now?
Do you have access to money/phone? Do you have your phone charger? Purse? Bank card?
Do you have enough warm clothes on?
Do you have someone, a friend or family you can call? Can you afford a hotel for tonight if no one short term?

Someone will be along soon who will have a better idea of links and information but can you call...
Shelter?
Local council?
Women's Aid?
Police - so you can get help to access your home for your stuff.

I'd get in touch with the council straight away.

Do you have any support such as a social worker, regular health visits, jobseeker advisor, housing officer?

Where did you live before?
Can you call family to help out for a day or two?

I’m waiting on a call back for a housing referral. Don’t really have any plan or place in the meantime. The police said I had to leave because I’m not the main tenant. So he can make me homeless with no warning at all.

I have my phone but no cash money etc I’m on UC which I give all to him so I have no money at all

Where are you right now harleyquinn ?

Have they phoned you back yet? Do you have a bank card?
When is your next UC payment?

Sorry, so many questions. I am thinking of you.

You've said he has been abusive for months. Is it worth going to the police? at least so there is a paper trail, then contacting Women's Aid.
