Abused, broken, rebellious, fostered, sectioned and criminal are just some of the words Alison uses when talking about her past. ‘I reached eighteen and lost job after job. I soon got caught up in the drug world and became addicted to heroin. But by the time I was thirty, I just wanted to be clean. I was five and a half stone and I just wanted to be clean’.

Alison was offered help by a Christian charity worker and within a few days opened a Bible and read the words ‘the truth will set you free’.
