I am a very spiritual and creative person, and I am at my happiest when I can spend time in nature, gardening and taking in fresh air. I love to read, and listen to music but the thing I miss most is spending time with friends.
I am currently living in temporary accommodation provided to me by Haringey council. At the beginning of last year I had started a job working and living on a farm. I was really happy to have this job, as I had been homeless on and off for several years and finally felt like I was getting back on my feet. 2 months after I started work, the pandemic hit and I lost my job. As I was the last person to join the team, I was the first to be let go with no compensation. This is how I found myself rough sleeping again.
I have spent a lot of time over the years working on myself and healing myself emotionally. A few years ago I started training as a Reiki healer, and this is a skill that I would like to develop and get back to in the future.
My short term focus is getting back into work. I am looking forward to working in construction and developing new skills that could help me set up my own business. Once I have started a job I want to move into my own accommodation, and start rebuilding my life so that one day I can share it with a family of my own.
