    Hi and welcome,

    If you have no food you maybe able to get a voucher for the food bank. This link will help further with that. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/help-if-on-a-low-income/using-a-food-bank/

    Do you claim any benefits at all? Do you live alone or with a partner?

    Please check the link i posted above. I also notice that you've put a contact number for yourself above. This is against scope rules to put personal information and we won't be able to ring you on your number. I have reported the phone number above to admin.

    Hi and welcome to the community I am sorry to hear about your situation. I notice your phone number isnt a UK code where do you live ? Some of the links may not be applicable or the benefits if you are not a UK resident

    Welcome to the UK again if you are not a UK citizen this could affect your entitlement to some benefits .

    What made you come to the UK are you alone or do you have any friends or family

    Have you recently moved to the UK from another country? You may have problems claiming benefits depending on what country you came from. Are you a British citizen?

    How long have you lived in the UK? Do you have familiy here? There may problems claiming benefits here because you're not coming from the EEA. https://www.turn2us.org.uk/Your-Situation/A-Migrant/Nationals-of-non-European-Economic-Area-(EEA)-coun/Can-you-claim-benefits

    You haven't come to the wrong forum but it's difficult to help you without all the information. Claiming any benefits here when you've come from another country is extremely difficult. If you've only lived here for a very short time then you won't be able to claim for any help with benefits.

    To claim for the disability benefit called Personal Independence Payments (PIP) you need to have lived in the UK fore 2 years. For any other benefits please read the link i posted above.
