I'm a proud mother to my two beautiful children. I gave birth to my daughter just over a month ago!
I'm currently living in a 1-bed with my two kids and my husband. It's a temporary form of accommodation, and we've been living here and in other temporary places over the last five years, before which we were living with my dad. Our housing situation has been difficult, but recently I've been falling more and more behind with my rent payments. Due to a miscommunication the council took me off the housing register and took away my housing benefit, so I'm now £7,000 in debt. To make things worse, my rent has increased too.
In the past I've worked as a kitchen assistant, but then I got pregnant and I haven't worked since. I want to have a stable job as a support worker where I can support other people who are in need, as I know what it's like to be in need. I want to finally start paying off my debts too.
Your support means so much to me, thank you!
