Hello, I hope you feel safe and welcomed here in the UK. I cannot imagine what you have been through or what you have seen on your way here. But I want to say that you can do this even though it will be hard and loney sometimes. If you just work hard and try to learn you will be happy here in the UK. I’m sorry that you had to leave your family behind and come here alone but I’m sure that you will get many friends that will be like your second family. Hopefully you will meet your family again soon. Stay strong and be yourself, everything will be fine soon.
