Dementia Battle

I’ve been watching my mum change into a different person since I was fifteen years old. My once kind, gentle and loving mother slowly started becoming cold, unaffectionate and distant.

Solar For My Home

I’ve been working from home for the last two years and my power bills have just been ridiculous. I didn’t realise how much money I saved on electricity by not being home for 22 hours a day, every day. I pretty much always have the power going. Whether I’m watching TV, have the heating or …
