At the moment, I'm feeling positive about the future. My children are my everything and I want to use this opportunity to get back to work so I can make life better for my family.
Things have been really difficult over the last 5 years. I was in an abusive relationship and then spent time living in refuge once I was able to flee. Going through that kind of experience with 3 children was extremely hard and left me with trauma. I'm glad I'm not in that situation any longer but I know the mental scars will always be there. I was supported into temporary accommodation last year and I'm hoping to find work so that I can move into somewhere more stable for us.
I'm really keen to work so that we can live a bit more comfortably. Now my children go to school, I'm able to do more hours than I could before. I'm open to the type of job I do and will be really happy to have something that gives a bit of structure to my day too.
