Since their tent was damaged, the pair have taken to carrying everything they can with them when they travel anywhere, which has been tough during the six-mile walk into Bolton town centre.
"We're having to carry everything around with us so that's really uncomfortable but we don't have decent backpacks," Katie explained.
"We have to walk everywhere, we've come from Rivington all the way to the town centre today.

Katie receives benefits from the government and has struggled to find work because of a number of health problems but is keen to try and stay well during the pandemic.
"I like to keep myself clean and now it's hard to keep up with that," she said.
"I'm having to wash my hair in cold water - it's horrible. I have mental health issues and I can't go to the doctors because they're closed to most people."
Despite isolating themselves far away from where most people live, the couple are still concerned about contracting the coronavirus on trips into town.
Katie added: "The virus has made us homeless. Now, I'm worried about getting the virus. I was sick for about four weeks recently. I'm not sure if it was the same thing but I had a temperature and I was sick and I had a really bad chest.

Governors of about 20 states with few coronavirus cases believe they may be ready to start the process of reopening their economies by President Donald Trump's May 1 target date, a top US health official said on Wednesday.
Governors in harder-hit states - New York, California Louisiana, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Michigan - said there was a need for more widespread testing before starting to end the shutdown, which has thrown millions out of work with the closing of restaurants, businesses and schools.
Health officials have noted that death figures are a lagging indicator of the outbreak, coming after the most severely ill patients fall sick, and do not mean stay-at-home restrictions are failing to curb transmissions.
New York state and some other hard-hit areas continue to report sharp decreases in hospitalisations and numbers of patients on ventilators, although front-line healthcare workers and resources remained under extraordinary stress.
Officials have also cautioned that coronavirus-related death figures are likely an undercount due to people dying at home or in nursing homes who were never tested for the virus.

MP Nadine Dorries has tonight claimed the only way the UK will `` exit full lockdown '' is when a vaccine for Covid-19 is found .
Mrs Dorries , Health Minister for Patient Safety , Suicide Prevention and Mental Health , made the claims on Twitter - even though the Government has not yet officially announced when the restrictions will be lifted .
She tweeted : `` Journalists should stop asking about an ‘ exit strategy.
’ '' There is only one way we can ‘ exit ’ full lockdown and that is when we have a vaccine .
`` @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ways we can adapt society and strike a balance between the health of the nation and our economy . ''
Broadcaster Piers Morgan retweeted Mrs Dorries ' claims , saying : `` Health minister says UK will be in ‘ full lockdown ’ until there is COVID-19 vaccine - which experts say will be at least 18 months .
Astonishing break from other Govt statements . ''
However , Mrs Dorries appeared to then do a u-turn and in response said : `` No I haven ’ t Piers !
What a ridiculous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to adapt .
It would be more helpful to talk about ‘ relaxing lockdown ’ than constantly demanding an ‘ exit strategy.
’ '' My point being , some of you guys need to start asking more intelligent questions . ''
It comes as Dominic Raab said the Government will not even consider lifting the UK coronavirus lockdown this week .
The Foreign Secretary said the UK was still not `` past the peak of the virus '' and added that `` we do n't expect to make any changes to the measures @ @ @ @ @ @ @ advisory group ( SAGE ) meets later this week .
He said the country could not afford to take its `` foot off the pedal '' and risk a second wave of the virus .
Commenting on accusations the Government lacked an exit strategy , Mr Raab said : `` It 's absolutely crucially important that we do not take our eye off the ball or the public 's focus on the thing that has been a success so far in relative terms - which is our ability through widespread support for our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the means to spread . ''
The Cabinet is reportedly split on when to lift the lockdown with divisions over saving the economy competing with the need to suppress the coronavirus pandemic .
Chancellor Rishi Sunak is understood to be worried that a long lockdown could damage the economy , while Health Secretary Matt Hancock believes the protection of the NHS should be the main priority .
Labour Party leader has called on the Government to reveal its strategy for exiting the coronavirus lockdown this week .

He called on ministers to be `` open and transparent '' about how the restrictions , announced by Boris Johnson on March 23 , will come to an end .
Ministers are understood to be worried about the hidden costs of the lockdown , such as a rise in suicides due to the mental strain of isolation , or the impact of missed cancer diagnoses .
Among the main concerns are also a rise in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the number of people claiming benefits and the effects the lockdown can have on children who are away from school .
