Breakdown of a relationship

[Alyshak]

Hi, I’m currently with my partner of almost 10 years we share a 6 year old and a 3 year old.
our relationship isn’t the best. I want out but I know it would be me having to leave with the kids rather than him, as my name isn’t on the mortgage. So I’m really scared as I have nowhere to go, I don’t work so I don’t have money of my own everything is in his name.
i don’t work due to my partner working long hours and everything is down to me with the children. I feel so lost and trapped and unhappy! I’m anxious all the time and haven’t a clue where to even begin & if I’m even making the right choice! Just wondering if anyone has been in a similar position and got any advice
thankyou

Get a job where you can work from home when the kids are in school and nursery. Start saving. Speak to women’s aid about how to go about making a safe exit plan and also get them to confirm in writing you’ve been to see them and need to flee domestic abuse. Then get your name on every single housing association and council housing list in the areas near your kids school. Also, check the turn2us calculator for info on what benefits you’d be entitled to claim as a single parent looking for work. Also check the cms to see how much you’d be entitled to in child maintenance.
