The interactive alert form asks for an email address; city and sector are optional. Confirm by email before alerts begin. Rumours are never sent. The form appears when the interactive page loads.
How rumours are handled
A rumour must be labelled as unverified, linked to its attributable source, and kept out of email alerts. No rumour is presented here as a confirmed event.
Cash and next steps
The private 12-month cash-flow worksheet starts with accessible cash, lets you place an expected one-time payment in a selected month, and models continuing monthly income through a selected month. Break essential spending into housing, food, utilities, transport, healthcare and care, loan payments, and other essentials. Its month-end balances hold those assumptions steady; the worksheet does not model exact within-month payment dates, tax, legal entitlements, or when new work will arrive. Entries stay in page memory and clear on reload.
