Christine
After dealing with a family tragedy Christine went into a self-destructive spiral, becoming obese, alcoholic and agoraphobic. After 20 years she decided to help herself, so that by the time she came to us, she had given up alcohol and lost six stone. With Tomorrow's People, she gained plenty of new skills - in literacy, numeracy and IT - as well as valuable experience of work in a charity shop. Just two years ago Christine could not leave the house without a carer. Now she is sociable and outgoing, is described as "reliable, trustworthy, hard working" and is ready to find a job.
