My name is Katherine. I am 26 years old and live at home with my mum, dad and brother.
I have a very busy life. On a Monday and Tuesday I work part time at the Marks and Spencer café where I serve customers, clear tables, load the dishwasher and stock the shelves. I love my job specially
talking to the customers.
On a Wednesday I help out at a local florist in the morning. I enjoy sorting the flowers and making bows and having a chat with the other florists.
On a Thursday I help out at the local primary school helping the younger children with reading and writing. I enjoy working with the reception class.
I also enjoy going out with my friends to social events such as bowling, discos and youth club. I enjoyed the Abba night at the Rugby Club.

This months topic for our Down2Earth meeting was 'Housing' and 'Where we live'.
We had a discussion and filled out a questionnaire about where members lived, if they chose where they lived, who they lived with and whether they wanted to change where they lived. A lot of people are very happy living with their families and some people live with friends and housemates in supported living where they enjoy independence.
