Episode Details

Alan Morrissey spoke to a Morning Focus listener, who detailed her difficulties in securing accommodation. Our listener explained her hard life story, including difficulties and tragedy in her family life, finding herself in and out of homeless services since her teenage years, suffering in an abusive relationship, and dealing with depression, anxiety, social phobia and panic attacks. Our listener still finds herself homeless. She says she is “trying everything” to secure accommodation, but despite regularly contacting the local authority, her efforts have so far proven fruitless.
