Overview

Amy had a happy childhood until the death of her mother when she was 10. Her father became an abusive alcoholic and she was quickly abandoned by him, given money so she would leave the house and leave him alone. And disappear she did - to drug dens, with the tragic consequence that she became addicted to heroin by age 12. Soon after, Amy's father kicked her out and she became homeless, going into care but quickly back onto the streets with other teenagers who had fallen through the net. After shoplifting to feed her habit, Amy ended up in a young offenders institution, then rehab, where she met the father of her child. She became his prisoner for nearly a decade, and eventually escaped. At her lowest ebb, she managed to turn her life around and her story celebrates the huge steps she's taken to now enjoy a new life with her children and new husband
