My heart goes out to Theresa who is facing eviction from her home after 14 years. At the very age when you need a stable home everything is thrown into disarray. The pressure on this poor woman must be huge. When you're younger you can weather a few storms mentally but when you're that age you're less likely to cope . She can't be the only one either.
What are the local housing associations doing to meet the housing demand, and what do they need help with? As far as I was aware, it is not councils anymore who provide social housing.
Which are the most effective (local) housing charities, if people are in a position to donate or support?
The new home builders seem to wriggle out of their "affordable" requirements, does the GMCA have any power in this area and if not is it lobbying for it?
