Six months hunting for jobs, help me survive one

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Zanna and I need help with my monthly expenses.

I had to leave my job in november due to a skin problem which affected my ability to keep working in a kitchen environment (had to wear wellies which caused me contact dermatitis). My bosses were unwilling to place me in another spot within the factory (I wanted packing where the standard safety shoes were used and never had a problem with that kind of boots, but I was outright refused despite active hiring open for that role). Since then I've kept applying to jobs, updated my CV, doing free courses to get new skills. Friends and family helped financially because I still did not find anything.

Applied to UC, they accepted me, but keep underpaying. Sent them the proof how much I pay for rent - 600 monthly, and my claim shows a single person like me gets 400 extra, but they never sent the 1000, I have been sent 745 this month and it is definitely not enough. I don't have savings. I try to buy food weekly for a maximum of 50, but my next payment is on the 12th of June, and I already had to ask for advance from UC because I'd have been late with my rent money otherwise.

800 right now would help me pay my rent and buy food until the issues around my payment from UC gets stabilized by next month. I know things are tough for everyone out there, and I appreciate every little bit you can help me with this. Thank you.
