My name is Jamal and I would love to become financially independent and stable through Beam's help. My housing situation became really difficult when I had to leave my dad's home at the age of 21, and although I was able to live with my grandmother for a few years, losing my job at the start of the pandemic meant I was not able to keep bettering my situation at all. Over lockdown, I battled with depression and anxiety, and I had to leave my grandmother's house and move into supported housing.
I am a confident person and a fast-learner with really good communication skills, so I would love to find a job where I can use and develop these skills. I think a career in security would give me a stable financial position to build my future on. My dream is to be able to have enough money to put down a deposit on my own house and to start a family.
I enjoy playing and watching football, and I love reading books. My favourite book is 'I am Pilgrim' and I'd recommend everyone to read it!
I want to work hard to turn my life around and achieve my dreams. I hope I will be able to achieve this through your help.
