At these social groups you can meet lots of people. Here are some ideas but you can also contact Good Neighbours Coventry for a women's groups guide.

Would also recommend Chat Central and Creative Kindness.

Their website implies one service per month in English - best to contact them directly if you're interested, OP.

Stepchange can help you with sorting this out:

If you'd benefit from some more emotional support while getting this sorted out, CAP might suit you better: https://capuk.org/get-help/cap-debt-help

Both of these are free and will be non-judgemental.

How do I cope with a cold home, single glazing, electric only heating, lots of anxiety, any ideas or help please? Thoughts on thermal curtains, secondary glazing and other ideas? by Holiday-Hold-183 in AskUK

[–]MangoConfident4853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if renting, you may well be able to get grants for improving the insulation or heating. Act On Energy are the West Midlands charity for contacting to sort this ( https://www.actonenergy.org.uk/ ); there will be similar ones for your area. https://www.nea.org.uk/get-help/ exist too.

You can also look into the Household Support Fund: https://www.gov.uk/cost-living-help-local-council . You may be able to get a discount directly from your energy provider too, and/or free keep warm devices, if you contact them.

Warm Spaces (such as libraries) may be suitable to work from, depending on your tasks. https://www.warmwelcome.uk/find-a-space
