Some positive news today.

The powers-that-be at the council who were being asked for approval for me to be allowed to work in the housing support office as a volunteer have given that approval! Hurray!

This means that I can now start training to be a mentor to people who need support in their home. T is of the opinion that this will progress quickly into a viable job for me which, although not a guarantee of course, is certainly doing no harm to my sense of self esteem.

Fingers crossed.
