A woman who rented a run-down council house has spent £3k renovating it - using bargains from Primark and B&M - and saved £10k by doing the work herself.

Celene Francis, 25, started renting her council house in April 2020 and has renovated the property to make it more of a home.

When she moved in, the mum-of-one said the house was in a "dire condition" with plaster all over the floor, yellow ceilings and wallpaper peeling off the wall.

Celene said that she saved a fortune as she did her DIY herself and bought furniture from shops like B&M Bargains, Primark and Ikea - estimating she's saved herself £10k.
