This 64-year-old woman from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background has recently endured the heartbreak of eviction on 26 November. She is now residing in temporary accommodation for six weeks, with no certainty about her future housing. Despite ongoing efforts to escalate her housing application, no long-term option has yet been secured.

She is living with multiple chronic health conditions—diabetes, high blood pressure, HIV, and high cholesterol—while also navigating unemployment and severe financial stress. The instability of homelessness has compounded her struggles, leaving her feeling anxious, isolated, and overwhelmed.

As Christmas approaches, the season of joy and togetherness feels especially difficult for her. She is unable to afford essential medications, food, or rising utility costs, and the unpredictability of her situation has taken a heavy toll on her wellbeing.
