Helna of Thaippura, Kombodinjamakkal, spends the entire day toiling at the vehicle workshop owned by her brother Beryl. At night, she turns a BA English student. “As the classes are under the distance education stream, I get time to help the family by working at the workshop,” says Helna.
At the workshop located at Kattippokkam, Chalakkudy in Thrissur, Helna’s mother too would be present as manager.

On most days, Helna would be at the workshop from 9 am to 6 pm. Sometimes, work lasts till night.
At the workshop, a hurdle Helna often faces is repairing inside the bonnet. Standing four feet and three inches tall, the youngster – who is not yet 18 – overcomes the issue by standing on a tyre.
