Following a family fall out I ended up sofa surfing and fending for myself. I managed to find a job in Spain and later on in Brazil, however the implications of the pandemic meant that this new venture ended abruptly. I returned to England with little money and found myself living in a hostel whilst I got back on my feet. With the support of Beam, I was able to find myself a job working as a furniture assembler. Now that I am in stable work I now want to find myself a stable home so that I can start focusing on other parts of my life to ensure that I am never in this situation again.
I am really excited at the prospect of finding a home as it will allow me to gain some security and independence. Things are starting to get better and I am finally beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
In the future I hope to become financially secure and stable. I feel as though a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders just by knowing that I am not alone in this.
