 Hi, my name's Mark and I had a guarding business that I ran for 23 years. Last year when the pandemic hit, it really interfered with my business. Unfortunately, I had to close it in the end, which caused problems with my mental health. The helpline gave me consultations for my business and my well-being once a week. The people that I spoke with were honest, respectful, kind and understanding. They helped me close my business and gave me hope, which made me move forward. Closing down my business was hard, but now I'm starting a new part of my life. The helpline got me motivated to do a computer course, try some new things out. I don't know where I'd be now without the helpline.
