I had the pleasure of receiving the lovely zine art book that was produced by myself and several other participants. I wasn’t expecting the book to arrive in the post. I had completely forgotten about it so it was an absolutely wonderful surprise. I love how the book comes to life by scanning the QR codes and hearing all of us speaking or live experiences. Really proud of the work that we’ve done.

The weather is beautiful right now. I hope it lasts so the children have a good summer holiday from school. My daughter had her holy communion and after a lot of effort and funds I gave her the best party that everyone really enjoyed at home. I think people expect you to do something when I have an only child. Now I need to re budget for next month and pay off my debt just to get back to normal again but I can do this. Warmer days can be enjoyed in the garden which saves money because bringing them out for day trips also costs money. I'm feeling good for the future.

It seems like yesterday it was january, I got paid my uc and was in my overdraft the same day from just getting shopping this is the reality of uc and price increases for things that we need this month I have a communion to pay for myself and I feel bad for not having a big event for my only child. Child maintenance haven't recieved a penny from her dad in months and told me about his next payment due in June which we all know he wont pay it on his arrears. I wish they had similar laws like America over here. I applied for a discretionary support grant and was told I applied July 31st last year so I cant apply for another until after that date so im just going to wait and apply once I can. Im excited for the communion coming up on the 23rd I wish we could have a sit down meal but we will settle for some food and snacks at home

Watched the BBC committee with Ruth. Amazing to see her and her using terms like experts for lived experience parents.

Thank you for listening to us!
