"Working's good most of the time. Even when I don’t like it, it still gets me out of bed every day. Getting out of bed gets me to the shower. Having a shower gets me dressed and out the door. And then I am at work and I haven’t spent the day in bed."
John. social firm employee

"I never thought I could work. I always though I would be sick and at hospital and living with mum and dad. Now I have even done a training certificate. I see my friends and we talk about work and clothes and what the stars are doing – you know? We don’t talk about being sick."
