Pamela is living in a place that she is proud to call home with neighbours who share her love of gardening.
About a year ago, Pamela was living in a cold, wet and unmaintained property. She couldn’t manage the stairs and slept downstairs, using a commode as a toilet and washing in the kitchen sink.
She had stacked up debts and could not see a way out.
Her dream was to live somewhere that she felt warm, safe and could have a shower.
With support from KeyRing Oldham, she set up agreements and direct debits so that she could manage her debt and have control over her money.
Then she set to work on finding her dream home. She was worried about selling her home and getting somewhere new. Her support worker explained that she’d be there every step of the way. Together they secured a sale for her house at a price Pamela was happy with, some amazing negotiation went on! Pamela got herself a lovely little bungalow through the local housing provider and has moved in.
Pamela has lovely neighbours who put her bins out for her each week, and help her keep her garden looking beautiful.
Pamela says "Thank you so much. I can’t believe how much I have achieved in such a short time with your help."
