Hey, I'm Kev. The last few years have been pretty tough for me - especially with my housing situation. After losing my job 6 months ago, I lost my home and had to move into temporary accommodation. I’m grateful that I have somewhere to live for the next few months - but I'm really wanting to get back into my own space and to have a place that I can properly call home!
Alongside that, one of the biggest challenges I’ve faced is with my teeth - I’ve had ongoing issues with them and, to be honest, it’s been a painful journey. Still, I’m feeling positive and hopeful for the future - I’m halfway through a series of appointments that should sort out my teeth for good, and I feel like I’m really ready to get back into work for the first time since losing my job last year.
I used to operate a forklift for 24 years, and I'd love to get my license renewed and secure a stable job doing this again. Though I’ve worked in a few different roles since then, I really want to get back into operating a forklift - it’s what I’m good at and what I enjoy! My main goal is to find a stable job that allows me to support myself, and also give a bit back to my daughters. I'm really looking forward to the day when I can move into my own place and start a new chapter in my life.
