Cost of living: Teacher turns Insta star making five meals for £25

Four years ago Ashleigh Mogford was on maternity leave and, in her own words, totally skint.

Today she is an influencer with close to 500,000 followers on Instagram, a deal with a major supermarket and a glossy cookbook.

"Even now I still get this feeling of 'they've got the wrong person'," said the 31-year-old from south Wales.

Ashleigh is best known for her videos showing how to make five family meals for £25, sharing shopping lists, recipes and glimpses into her family life in Wenvoe, Vale of Glamorgan.
