My dream is to have a clean and safe place to call ‘home’, and now with Beam’s help I feel that there is real hope.
It has been really difficult for me over the years, and I have been faced with many obstacles. Not only am I deaf, but I have had to deal with serious health issues as well. The deafness can be very isolating and make communications very difficult. I have found myself often feeling cut off and lonely. This, together with the medical setbacks that I have also faced, has made it very difficult to have any kind of stability in my life.
I have recently suffered terribly with bed bugs. My current property has become unliveable and I haven't had the financial means to find a new home. This has caused me an enormous amount of both mental and physical stress and has even left me hospitalised for a period of time.
However, since I have been on this journey with Beam, I have begun to feel much more positive for the future. I am hopeful that having a home can make it possible to find work and eventually allow me to support others who find themselves in similarly difficult situations.
