Many years ago at my dads funeral my mum and wider family gave me a choice of having them in my life as a family or being with my same sex partner . I chose to be with my partner, his family were amazing and treated my like another son. Sadly after the first lockdown my relationship broke down because he thought the grass was greener by having an affair. Sadly this uncovered some of his bad habits one being a very bad secret gambling habit which has now resulted in me no longer having any security or saving all due to him taking advantage of me and the situation. This has resulted in a hand to mouth existence and only enough to survive on a month to month basis .
A home of my own would make such a difference to my outlook and mental health this would also give me a much needed place of safety and refuge that I can finally call my own and give me optimism for the future .
I really appreciate you reading this and anything you can pledge I can only from the bottom of my heart say a sincere thank you .
