A 20-year-old man, who works 10-hour shifts seven days a week, has shared how he is surviving in the cost of living crisis. Ashley Goudou lives in a one-bedroom flat, with his four dogs and four rescue cats.
He earns £6.81 an hour, and cannot afford a pedal bike to get to work. The factory worker walks an hour in the dark to get to his night stint and lives off Pot Noodles, as that's the cheapest meal he can make.
Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Ashley said: "I shower at the gym because I can't afford the gas to wash at home. I always worry at the end of the month if I have enough money to feed the dogs - but I'd rather feed them than myself."
