I'm a positive person and I'm happy enough to know that I'm healthy and that my loved ones are doing well. Keeping fit is also super important to me as I really feel that connection between mental and physical health.
I first started struggling with my housing when my family home became overcrowded. I had to move out but as I didn't have a stable job at the time I became homeless and had to get help from the council. I'm now living in supported accommodation but my time here is almost up. Getting a job means that I can move into a privately rented place where I can live more independently.
I'm both a barber as well as painter/decorator by trade. Both of these professions have helped me understand what great customer service looks like so I'm hopeful that I'll find something where I get to use these skills. I'm very grateful for the support I'm getting and I'd love to be the one donating back to help others once I'm stable.
