A father-of-two who battled addiction and homelessness is hoping to break down benefits' stigma and find new work by tweeting about his job search. James Doris, 35, has an impressive work history with big-name employers from the railway industry.
However, the tenacious dad said he is struggling to find a job due to a stringent budget that sees him unable to afford a suit or laptop for virtual interviews. His decline began after suffering a back injury.
An addiction to prescription pain killers saw him taking 32 pills every day. His relationship collapsed soon after, which led to him being homeless and sleeping at bus stops.
