Hello, I'm Ruth. I'm a mother to two wonderful children, a boy aged 2 and a girl, 5. They are my world and what keeps me going. I've been through a lot, including escaping a domestically abusive relationship. This experience has taken a toll on my mental health, but I'm taking steps to manage it. My faith and my children are my pillars of strength during these challenging times.
I used to be a teacher for 12 years, but for the past two years, I've been out of work. I've been applying for jobs in education and IT, but it's been tough. I'm eager to get back to work, not just for the income, but also for the sense of purpose and achievement it brings. I'm looking for a job that fits around my children's school hours and every other weekend when they are with their dad.
In two years, I hope to be settled in a stable job, a stable home and provide the life my children deserve.
