Having to count the last few coins to be able to buy food for the whole family, and finally having to go to bed hungry most of the time...

Seeing the bailiffs turn over my parents' house when I was a child and even a teenager...

Facing shame on a daily basis...

I've lived in poverty and done everything I could to get out of it.

Poverty and illness are the most horrible things that can happen to a human being.
