What do I do next

[Green light to go]

Hi I’m a single dad with 5 children I’ve been separated since the middle of lock down, my partner works full time and on a good wage, although I work I often have to leave to pick up children from school and take children to school, I get £300 a month towards the mortgage but nothing towards the children. She has the children 2 evenings a week.
I’ve been trying my best to financially And emotionally hold it together For the children but I’m now really worried about loosing the house for the sake of the children.
I have no family and friends live over 150 miles away I’m completely on my own and truly don’t know how to move forward for the children.

Have you checked what you are entitled to money wise to make sure you are claiming everything?  Try http://www.entitledto.co.uk to give you an idea.

You could go through the cms to get maintenance for the children,  check on the cms calculator if you know her approximate income to give you a rough idea of if you could get more.

Gingerbread have an advice line that can give help on finances or maybe the citizen advice bureau?
