I was asked to leave my last property before I found a new place. My feelings of uncertainty about my housing situation have worsened as I’ve been actively searching for a home for over a year, but with no luck. It’s been incredibly challenging as I'm simultaneously looking for work and struggling to cover the costs of up front rent and deposit, whilst looking after my son in the current cost of living crisis.
It feels amazing knowing that there are people out there who want to support me to achieve my dream of a home for myself and my son. When I move into a new property it will be such a relief for us both, especially as he will be taking his GCSE exams. It will give me security, and the space to start planning our futures. I hope that soon I will be working full time, that our financial situation is stable and my son has a safe place to study while taking his A Levels.
