To help get my daughter out of forced adoption and support

After 2 years of being homeless and the council sending the social services to tear my family apart, the baby mother didn't pay my £1025 back also, she has chose prostitution and drugs over our 1 year old baby daughter who was taken at 2 months. I've finally landed a home for me and my daughter. The council said they would pay my first months rent and deposit but to do that i needed housing benefit but to do that i needed a tenancy, so now i've put the money up for the tenancy, they will not give me my discreationary housing payment because i put the money up, sounds like a back to forward con needing housing benefit when you have to have a home first. Lucky my friend saved my life letting me stay at his after the baby mother cheated on me with drugs and 3 guys also getting my stuff burgled at a total amount of around £2000. I have paid for the tenancy and now they will not give me my first months rent and deposit back, i also had to get a £250 van to get from Littlebourne to Derby. I have completely maxed my £1000 credit card and £300 overdraft to pay for the first months rent (£685) and the deposit (£790) and a van (£250). I have already got an advance £345 from Universal credit which has been used up. I have had to go to a food bank twice and that's all they canspare. I have started a charity job at 'Sue Ryders' charity shop at Park Farm in Derby, feel free to ask Yvette or Jess. Still no bed, no fridge, no washing machine, no cot, no pram, no baby clothes, no food chair, pretty much nothing and i'm running out of time. Only toys and a changing mat, i am on my small couch plus my trainers are falling to bits. I have been going to charity shops and budgeting as much as possible.

My Mum passed at 26 due to suicide, her family didn't wanna know us. My Dad passed in 2023, his family have also to passe. My Grandad at 100 years old, Nan and Uncle, so i have no family or friends left to ask for help.

I have done everything the social services and solicitors have asked me to do, 17 parent course certificates, on top of my anxiety and depression doing mental health courses and councilling, i have completely stopped drinking alcohol and cannabis for over 2 weeks and have absolutely no intention to go backwards as this will not get me my baby daughter back, no standing up to professionals, no speaking to the baby Mother, no arrests, i have some references but they said i need money. Even when i get paid i am worried after the rent, coucil tax and electric, food and drink, credit card and overdraft paid off, that i won't be able to get my baby daughter (1 years old) Diana's room ready. I do not have long left, they said the end of July, beginning of August to oppose the adoption placement order. I really didn't wanna have to try this but the council and baby Mother and social services have all let me down drastically. If you can spare anything, all the money will be going to my baby daughters future.

Thank you for reading this and thank you for your time, anything is appreciated.
