Three years to get debt free
Comments

What a whirlwind few months.
After 17 years, I have given up my teaching career. I had a bad back injury and felt constantly worried it would be knocked, so decided to leave.
I don’t know what next, but seeing it as an exciting opportunity for a new challenge.
I am still studying and will find something that I feel confident doing for the future.
I hope everyone else is ok. I am hopefully to continue my debt journey.September 2017 Debt = £25330
Starting afresh.

Well done for making that decision Willow - I left behind teaching 2 years ago after 14 years, and was SO worried but there is such a life outside of the classroom!1
