Having never been financially independent the whole of my adult life, I am now earning my own money. I went back to college, gained more qualifications and applied for a job. I feel so proud of myself, I am a role model for my children.

I couldn’t have done this on my own, I am stronger because I asked for help and the support I received helped me to find out what I am capable of doing. I can’t thank you enough.

I now feel more resilient, stronger, safe, and confident since leaving my ex-husband and with support from the funding by The Ellie Trust I now feel like I have a chance to restart my life.

The outreach service funded by The Ellie Trust has been a lifesaver to me. I was not ready to join a group or attend sessions at the centre, so meeting informally where I could seek advice without bringing unwanted attention helped me so much.

Thanks to the funding by The Ellie Trust I have just secured my first volunteering role within the centre, helping women who were just like me. The Next Steps programme has given me the determination to move on independently with my life.
