I've been living in temporary accommodation as I'm a single mother, and a survivor of domestic violence. My son's father subjected me to verbal and mental abuse and it really affected my mental health, so I decided to leave.
I'm getting help from the police and Women's Aid, and they support me if he gets in touch with me, or if I need general advice. I'm really grateful for the help they've given me so far but I want to get a future again for me and my son. My mental health has improved so much since then, and I'm ready to move forward.
I have achieved a degree in Travel & Tourism which I'm so proud of, and have had experience in customer service, but now I've been looking for roles which fit easily with childcare. Something in a nursery or school would be perfect for the school holidays. With some support with childcare and travel to start m off on the right foot, I can then save some money for our future once I start my new career.
