Mel Watkinson

Hi, my name is mel, and i am a first year fine art student at university. I struggle already to stay financially stable due to mental health issues and just how difficult it can be to get a job, and am now trying to do anything to try and be self employed, recently even starting digital commissions and with any money i make from that and selling clothes etc i plan to see if i can sell my art through prints and mugs too ! But for now that will have to wait, as of recent years i’ve learned more about my mums financial situation and due to her health and bills rising, her debt is rapidly growing, and she has landed in a very stressful situation. Thas where i want to step in and try to help, it is mother’s day and her birthday very soon, and as a present it would be really nice if i could send her any sort of money over to help pay off a little bit of it, the more the better ofcourse but we all have to start somewhere! Anyways, it would mean the world to me if you could donate, even just £1 goes a long way, or if you can’t, share this !! i will be doing a charity stream very soon in order to help spread awareness!

Hi, I’m Mel and i am here fundraising as i’ve got to admit… i’ve been struggling quite a bit lately :( long story short, after paying off some medical debt, i’ve not really got a lot of money these days to go towards food shops and supplies as i am a fine art student doing my 1st year at university. Im still waiting on a hardship bursary but i haven’t heard anything back and it’s been 2/3 weeks which would help currently so much, and i get a little bit of money from my student finance payments but in today’s economy it’s not much to live on these days. in terms of jobs too, i have my content but i don’t earn much and i need to get a new updated form of ID to get said money. I have vinted aswell where i am trying to create a small side hustle to help in any way as well as i am in need of a declutter. i don’t want to ask for much, but it would really help, and i wouldn’t be constantly worrying every week what i can afford and can’t ! :3
