Life is hard for a teenage mother living in isolation, on benefits and with little education. Brought up in care herself, Mary dreads the possibility of her little boy ending up in the same place. Social services are already keeping an eye on her and she's desperately trying to keep her head above water. A chance meeting with two other women in the city - Sheila, a middle-aged retired professional, and Eileen, an elderly widow - opens Mary's eyes to a myriad of possibilities and a new outlook on life. The trials and tribulations of these three women bring them together in the small northern town of Warmfield. But will this unite them for the better?
