I'm a single parent who's on UC (which I wish I wasn't!) and don't ever have much left each month after paying the household bills.
I'm currently going through the process of bankruptcy and with Christmas right around the corner I'm panicking about presents etc!
I have no money to be able to get my 2 year old son anything or any food/treats.
I can't expect family to fork out for us when they have themselves to sort.
Does anyone know of any way of getting some Christmas cash? I am unable to get a loan, advance with UC or ask family! :(

Thanks in advance X

I know it's easier said than done but please try not to stress about it, your 2 year old will be happy with a few small bits and plenty of fun time with you!

Make his favourite dinner on the day - a few chocolate coins, a big bubble bath, a walk, play some games and watch a Christmas movie with popcorn before bed sounds like a fun day to me :)
