When a relationship ends & you're financially dependant on your partner

pintsizepirate
Hi there
My partner can no longer cope with me and has just ended our relationship. I've been diagnosed with ADHD and on a waiting list for autism assessment. I'm 47, completely dependant on my partner financially and not currently working. Over the last year I received multiple diagnoses and currently going through the PIP reconsideration stage. 
- Where do I go to get help? (they want to sell the house ASAP)
- Is there any help? (suspect little help is available)
I knew this was coming and have put a few savings aside but not enough to cover finding a new home and paying rent. Any advice or information would be hugely appreciated as I currently have no clue what to do or where to go. Online trying to speak to Citizens Advice but no-one available. Think I need to be up earlier for that. 
Many thanks in advance.

  • in terms of the house unless you've put money into it (including through renovations) there is not much you can do. If you have kids that will be a whole can of worms you need a lawyer for but you are almost certainly owed some sort of access or even mayby joint custody which could involve financial suport. I'm assuming that's not the case.

    Basicly you are being made involenteraly homeless. So you need to speak to your local council about social housing. Check your local councills website for the phone number and ring them up. this website can help you work out who to ring https://www.gov.uk/homelessness-help-from-council
