The past few years have been a whirlwind for me. I've faced some tough times, my biggest challenge I've faced is homelessness. For over six months now, I've been without a place to call my own, sofa surfing and sometimes even sleeping on park benches. I've never rented before and the prospect of finding a place to call home feels overwhelming.
I came across Beam and was amazed to find that there are people out there who genuinely want to help me. It felt surreal at first, almost too good to be true. But now, I'm filled with hope and excitement. I'm looking forward to finding a stable home and a job that I can sustain. I'm also planning to undertake a railway course which I believe will open up new opportunities for me.
In two years' time, I see myself living in a safe place I can call home and working a steady job. I want to be able to provide a stable environment for my kids when they come to visit. I can't express how much it would mean to me to achieve this goal. It would feel like a dream come true! So, thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any support you can give. It truly means the world to me.
