The last period of my life has been tough; I had to stop working due to serious injuries. I was very stressed when I could not raise enough funds to rent a place, but thankfully Beam has supported me with this. They helped me at a time when I was really struggling, by supporting me financially into a new flat.
I was so relieved to move in. However, I discovered that there was major damage to the roof and ceiling of the flat which neither I nor Beam knew about. This led to my ceiling caving in through rainfall and the majority of my possessions being damaged. This situation was stressful and unfortunate, but Beam came to the rescue again and helped me get out of that property, and into a new flat (with a much better ceiling).
Honestly, Beam does not get enough credit. The world will be a better place with more platforms like Beam. It feels great! Hopefully, now I can use this opportunity to be in a better position in life, and be a home owner. Hopefully, be in a position where I can support Beam and campaigners just like myself.
