Jess saved every penny she could to give her children a safe home. But it wasn’t enough.
After receiving an eviction notice, Jess – a mother of four and full-time college student – was forced to move into temporary accommodation.
Determined to build a better future for her children, she worked hard and saved what she could.
But it still wasn’t enough to cover the upfront costs of securing a permanent home.
Jess faced an impossible choice: remain in unsettled, temporary accommodation, or take on unmanageable debt to give her children the stability they needed.
With the pressure mounting, Jess turned to The Wallich.
Thanks to support from the charity’s Flexible Assistance Fund, she received a small grant that covered the final costs needed to secure a tenancy.
Just in time, Jess and her children moved into a warm, stable home.
