Henny has dreamed of becoming a truck driver since childhood. While working as a temp, she finally gets the chance to make this dream come true thanks to Doorzaam's Development Budget.

De 53-jarige Henny is al oma van 2 kleinkinderen, toch heeft ze het gevoel dat ze niet moet stil zitten. Ze droomt ervan om vrachtwagenchauffeur te worden. En gaat er dan ook vol voor! Dankzij het Ontwikkelbudget van Doorzaam kreeg ze de kans om een nieuwe opleiding te volgen. Met het budget krijgt ze de mogelijkheid om de lessen te volgen om haar schakelpapieren te halen voor de vrachtwagen.

Henny heeft met succes haar papieren gehaald voor haar vrachtwagenrijbewijs.
