I have been in temporary accommodation for the last 10 years - currently in a hotel room with my family and I. We have not had somewhere we can call home for a very long time and this weighs very heavy on our hearts. This has had a negative impact on my children's education and our places of work.
Ever since our property was sold 10 years ago, we have not had somewhere permanent - constantly moving, constantly having to change our lives around. It has been a struggle settling my children into school, and always having to find different jobs to support my family. The constant change has not been good for our famalies wellbeing. Our belongings have been in storage for many years, which are not damaged as we have not had a home we can put them in
Knowing there's people out there that are happy to support my family and I move makes me so feel so overwhelmed with joy, being able to finally have a permanent home after 10 years will allow us to feel safe in our surroundings and grow as a family which is what anyone would want out of life.
