My current situation is not easy for me. With my two children, I am currently in temporary accommodation where my neighbours have been hostile and threatening to us, so I've been trying to find somewhere better. One of the biggest difficulties with that is the fact that I don't have a job right now, which means my options are really limited in terms of what I can afford.
I've been looking for work for a long while now, but I haven't had any luck finding something that allows me to balance a job with being a single parent. Back in my home country, I was a primary school teacher. I've even got a degree in education! I would love to be able to keep building on the career I had rather than going back to square one, but I also know that I have other skills which could help me find work in other areas. I've always been a very creative person who does a lot of arts and crafts, from dress-making to face painting!
Finding a job that will allow me to build a better future for me and my children is such an important thing for me to do right now, not least so I can get us a home where we feel safe and happy. I know that if I keep working hard at it, it will pay off!
