My name is Wendy I live in Blackpool, UK I am sorely here to ask for your help. I have been in the UK since 2003, in 2008 I had to renew my visa and had serious problems with the Home Office to a point they lost my documents and never got any compensation. My problems began then, I couldn't find any employment due to the document I was awarded, being a qualified Care Assistant I had dreams of being qualified as a nurse but all that was taken away. The only jobs I was hired for were factory jobs. I couldn't get any help and was turned down and the doors closed. With no-one to turn to I lost everything I worked so hard for and ended up in the streets for a year with no help. I was tormented so much to this I still have nightmares, I was almost in the street for no reason, one night as I lay on a church step this guy came from nowhere and dragged me down the steps and my back has never been the same. Eventually I was hired by an agency made some money to move a start afresh in another city. With the little I had made I was able to stay at a bed&breakfast but the money ran out contacted the local council could'nt get any help from them at the same time continued looking for work. I eventually found a job as a Care Assistant in a nursing home for just over a month and was able to pay my rent but was already in arrears. I lost that job I was'nt treated fairly by the staff and felt like I did'nt belong was accused of stealing of which it was false.
I am a loyal, honest and hard-working person who is asking for a chance to get their life back, now I am in arrears of £1200 and counting I have been given until Monday 30th March 2015 to raise £100 failure to do I will be evited into the streets again. I sent my visa application once more for a renewal in January and I am afraid if I end up in the streets I will never receive my visa. I have tried to apply for jobs but no-one will give me a chance to get my life back, I have no money no food or anyone to turn to. I am even struggling to get any money for food, I have to walk miles to attend interviews. All I ever wanted was a chance to get my life back, I have nowhere to go and no-one to turn to and fear going back to the streets. I have any injury that has turned to discount causing swelling on my chest when I visited the hospital was turned away. All I ask is your help if anyone has any work as well please give me a chance.
