Location: Belfast
Campaign: To help other young mums realise they can achieve their dreams

When I was 18, I thought I knew what I wanted to do with my life.

 

Then, after my A' Levels, I became pregnant, which was a huge change for me.

 

But after giving birth to my son, I began to realise that he was a blessing in our lives.

 

Despite the responsibilities that come with parenthood, I managed to get through college and enrol at university.

 

I’m now working with Fixers to help other young mothers understand that they don’t have to give up on their ambitions after having a baby.

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with my Fix:

 

Andy Carson

Lyndsey Watterson

Megan Young

Nathan Wallace 

Gareth McClune

Jack Wilson

Caragh Miligan

Anna Rowan

Mark Riddell

Sara-Louise Smyth

Tarryn Shiels

Michaela Shiels

Sophie Boyd

Family Nurse Partnership

Deirdre Webb, Coordinator at the organisation, supported the project by providing an interview for the ITV News item.
