I am young lady in my early 40s, I am a loving mum of 4 but have some health conditions that impact my day to day living. I have some mental health issues which I am currently being supported with.
I am originally from Wales and have lived in Eastbourne since 2017, I have settled in well and enjoy living here but regard Wales as “home”.
