My children and I moved to the UK when war broke out in my home country of Ukraine. Since coming to the UK we have been grateful for the support. However, it has been a struggle to find housing and to settle in whilst my children and I get to grips with a new culture and way of life. Finding a stable home will go a long way to putting me at ease. It will mean that I don't have to continuously move my children around after everything they have been through.
The support I have received has been really up-lifting. I am new to all the systems in the UK and having someone to support me in understanding the paperwork and support me looking for houses has been invaluable.
I am excited to launch this campaign to help me get my home. I hope my story will shed light on the situation in my home country and enable others to receive the support I have.
In the future, I hope the war in my country comes to an end and my home is safe and peaceful. I want my children to be comfortable in their school and my husband is able to join us.
