Yesterday I went to work in one of the offices to save using my heating has sat still on the laptop means having to keep warm by using the heating instead of moving about. I will do this so I can have my heating on in the night too has if it’s too cold I can’t sleep unless I am warm first. I also work from the library which is always warm and welcoming.

Looking forward to attending my first zoom meeting to discuss changing realities :)

I have been out of work for 7 years as an Unpaid Carer to my disabled son.

I started a course through the councils Employment & Training Unit which was to help build confidence. This has led on to me doing an IT course at college 2 days a week. With being out of work for so many years I have lost skills, technology has moved on, I don't have much confidence so hoping this will set me on the road to getting back into work.

This days is very cold and windy but we are trying to get out to go to kids group. I had beautiful day yesterday with other moms. Thanks God for the blessings.

I've been given the winter home discount for November this will help massively as my company refuses to put our wages up and with working part time it's 1 month I can be less stressed about

We went to a baby class together this morning, it was nice for us both to get out the house together

Maternity pay is rubbish

Just answered the question of the week and I’m feeling very empowered and positive what I have written. I hope that it is of use and highlights government failings.

Hello, I am a mother who lives alone with my child and I am facing many problems. I am an immigrant and I have no acquaintances in where I live. The feeling of loneliness and the problems of life have made the situation very difficult, but with some help, ​​for which I am very grateful, I was able to gain morale and try to improve my situation so that I can create a bright future for my child

Today is a beautiful day because I took my son out to the movie theatre and we went to Amma to learn about Changing Realities, to learn about the wellbeing of every person in life. That your children still need you in their life.

Life as a single mum is difficult and not working. Kids will make requests that mostly you can't afford.

I'm so tired, need sleep
