Sarah's Story

"Due to circumstances over the last few months I have found myself in debt.  I am struggling to pay bedroom tax and am now in arrears and have to go to court.  It has been a case of either heating the house or eating.

I would be happy to move to a smaller property but there is nothing available so have to remain in the property but cant afford the bedroom tax and now face being evicted.

The situation is affecting my health and increased my depression,  I have disabilities that affect my mobility but cannot go into any sheltered accommodation until I'm 55 years of age."
