A woman who was once left homeless with her two kids has turned her life around and now owns a £600,000 home and a business worth £1 million. Mum-of-two Caroline Strawson, 48, hit rock bottom in 2013 when her home was repossessed after failing to pay her mortgage.
Caroline, who at her lowest point had just 20p in her bank account, was left not knowing where the money would come to look after her children, who were just eight and five at the time. The struggling mum was forced to ask her dad to be her guarantor so she could rent and put a roof over their heads.
Fast forward nine years and Caroline is now a successful entrepreneur with a million pound business, owns a beautiful £600,000 property and is able to send her children to private school.
