Homeless and moneyless after a fire at my place

Donation protected
I am alive for 50% luck and 50% quick and clever decision making: when I realised the flat was on fire it was already full of smoke but I could still figure out where the flames where and I could tell that using the door and don't get burned wasn't an option. So I exited through the window of my storage room and climbed on the neighbors roof.

I started shouting "fire" as I could not grab my phone and my neighbors heard me and called the fire brigades who eventually extinguished the fire and saved my life.

I am sleeping at a friend of mine place these days but she is leaving London for good on the 4th (that's within 2 days at the time I am writing this) so when she'll move out I won't have a roof over my head.

Being around (walking/leaving in the street) is pretty much a death sentence for me as 2 members of a local gang has threatened to kill me a couple of months ago. Why would they hate me so much? Because I am trans which also make them assume I am gay (ironically I am actually pansexual but I have no idea if this is better or worst to the eyes of trans/homophobic people and it does not make any difference anyway).

I'm aware that this is a hate crime and it's been reported to the police but other than increasing police presence in the area, there's not much they can do atm.

I've estimated my losses in the fire to be over 7200 pound and I am not expecting to be able to re-buy all I lost but I do need clothing, food and money for a temporary accommodation as I couldn't contact the council yet (increase demand apparently) and my savings are running out.

It's probably worth to mention that I've been suffering from PTSD for a very long time, the death threats haven't really helped to improve it and this last traumatic event is also not ideal to smoothen up my path to recovery.

Pls, if you have few pound to spare help me out, it's the 1st time I am on the other end of a donation (normally I am the donator) and it's a bit humiliating but I do need it badly.
