Debbie
Debbie, a Stockport mum of two battled depression after losing her job in a care home. With a family to look after, Debbie tried to get another job but struggled to find something suitable.
"I went from having zero confidence and not wanting to leave the house, to earning my own money and rebuilding my self-respect. I was so nervous when I first attended but they eased my worries and helped in so many practical ways. I'm making new friends at work and feel like I have a purpose in life again. I'm looking forward to working my way onwards and upwards."
