Hi my name is Reece I’m an English man living in southern Spain with my partner and 3 children. I have been here for 10 years and my partner works full time, I stay at home looking after the children and try to find work that fits in with their school hours but it’s very difficult. My partner’s wage enables us to pay our rent and amenities but we struggle every month to get by.

I have always been passionate about cooking and over the years have worked in various bars, cafes as a cook. A friend of mine had a hog roast business and I used to help him cook the meat and prepare the side dishes. I loved it and became very passionate and would spend time putting together different side dishes. The work was mainly evenings and weekends which meant my wife could have the children. Unfortunately my friend returned to England and my employment left with him. My dream is to start my own hog roast business but I lack the funds to buy the equipment. Your donations will enable me to start my own business allow me to do something I’m deeply passionate about as well as financially help to support my family and give my children a better chance in life.
