A HULL gas engineer who lost almost everything is now preparing to return to work, thanks to his determination and the support of local services.

Jon saw his life unravel and lost his job, his tools, and eventually his home.

Facing the uncertainty of homelessness and wanting to overcome addiction, Jon reached out for help and found it with Louise Mullen, a work coach at the Hull Jobcentre.

Jon was accepted into a rehabilitation centre offering a structured 12-step programme.

The supportive environment helped Jon focus on recovery and begin rebuilding his life. Earlier this month, Jon took a major step forward to regaining employment by enrolling in an ACS Accredited training course.
