Hello, I'm Sophie. I'm a proud mother of two wonderful boys, and seeing them thrive brings me immense joy. However, the past few years have been a real struggle for us. I had to make the difficult decision to leave my abusive husband and our family home, taking my children with me. We've been living in temporary accommodation since then, which has been challenging. Healing from the injuries while ensuring my children are not traumatised has taken a toll on all of us.
What I want more than anything is to provide a stable and secure home for my children. A place where they can grow, learn, and feel safe. It's important to me that we live in a good locality, close to their school. I've previously rented a private property, so I know the responsibilities that come with it. But right now, I need a little help to get back on my feet and make this dream a reality for my family.
The support I've received so far has been overwhelming. I'm still in disbelief at the kindness and generosity of strangers. It's not easy for me to ask for help, but I'm incredibly grateful for it. I'm excited about the future this campaign will make possible. I can finally rent a home where we can live freely, and invite our friends and relatives over. In two years' time, I hope to have a stable job and maybe even be able to take out a mortgage to buy a house.
