I've always found joy in helping others, but now I find myself in need of a bit of help. I ran a successful business in Battle for 40 years, employing 10 staff and contributing to our local economy. Unfortunately, due to a series of unfortunate events, my business went bankrupt in December 2022. This left my wife and I liable for the debts and we had to declare bankruptcy ourselves. It was a dark time and the fear of losing our home was overwhelming.
With Beam's help, I'm hoping to find the perfect retirement property - something affordable and secure. The thought of having a stable and stress-free retirement brings me immense relief. I've never been one to ask for help, but the support from Beam and my friends has been invaluable. It's a strange feeling to be on the receiving end of such kindness, but it's also incredibly humbling.
Launching my Beam donations page is exciting because it's not just about me, it's about helping others too. Your donations will provide help to so many people in times of fear and stress, helping them to find work and a place to live. I can't express enough how thankful I am for your support. In two years' time, I hope to be enjoying a stable and stress-free retirement. Achieving this goal with Beam will mean the world to me - it's the chance to enjoy life without the constant stress and worry about the future.
