Hello, I'm Emily, a proud mum to two wonderful children. I've been living in our current home for over five years, but unfortunately, our landlady is having to sell the property. As a single parent working part-time, it's been a real challenge to secure a new rented property. Despite my best efforts, I've faced rejection after rejection due to other applicants seeming more favourable to landlords. But I'm not giving up. I'm determined to find a suitable home for my family, somewhere close by so my son can walk to school.
I've always been one to stand on my own two feet, but I've realised that sometimes, you can't do everything alone. I've been humbled by the understanding and compassion of people who are willing to help. Knowing that there are people out there who genuinely want to help us have the best life possible has made the future seem a lot lighter and brighter. With Beam's help, I'm hopeful that we'll be able to secure a new home and start our next adventure.
In two years' time, I see myself continuing to be the best mum I can be. I currently work in sales, but I'm a qualified personal trainer and I'd love to start building up my business again. I may not be completely financially independent by then, but I'm committed to doing the most I can to support myself and my children. Achieving this goal with Beam would mean a fresh start for us, and I'm excited about the opportunities that lie ahead. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Your support means the world to us.
