    My husband and I are in the process of getting into a position where we can declare ourselves BR. We have just found a flat, hopefully get the keys on Monday. I have an interview at CCCS on Tuesday and god willing I will become employed (working for a great cause) and we can save up then for the fees.

    Without the help and support of everyone on here we wouldn't be coping with it as well as we are. CCCS have also been a great help as have Shelter.

    A sense of community life still exists and that is good.

    Thank you again

    It's not as good as you wish but it's never as bad as you fear. To breathe again is a nice feeling, take care and thankyou for your post xx
