At 58, I've become more aware of how quickly circumstances can change. Like many women, I've spent time caring for family and know that life doesn't always follow the path we expect. When I think about rising living costs, housing pressures, illness, or unexpected setbacks, I can't help but wonder how easily any of us could find ourselves doing it tough.

Imagine if it were me, a friend, a sister, or someone you care about facing that uncertainty. That's one of the reasons I'm supporting Orange Sky and taking part in the Sudsy Challenge. It's a small way to help raise awareness, encourage conversation, and support people who may be experiencing homelessness or hardship.
