The last few months have been some of the most difficult of my life. My family and I have been living in our current home for nine years, but due to circumstances beyond our control, our landlord has asked us to leave. This has been a huge blow to us, especially for my son who's just started secondary school and is trying to get settled into a new environment and make new friends.
It's been such a struggle finding a new home - some places have even said outright that they don't accept children. I've been trying as hard as I can, but it's hard not to feel like I'm failing my family. All I want to do is do right by them and find somewhere that we can make memories and feel safe.
Knowing that there are people out there who want to help us achieve this goal is incredibly heartwarming. I'm so grateful for your support and for my caseworker Lauren, who has been a rock for me during this time. Your donations will not only help us find a new home but also give us hope for a brighter future. Achieving this goal with Beam will be a huge achievement, and show my son that nothing can stop you from reaching your goals.
