Disabled Mom Stuck in Unsuitable B&B | London News
Description
A disabled pregnant woman, Miss Y, was trapped in unsuitable housing for over a year after Ealing Council failed to properly accommodate her medical needs — including placing her in a B&B with stairs and ignoring her housing application. Despite being homeless and in urgent need, she endured unsafe, temporary living situations before finally securing stable housing. The Ombudsman ruled the council at fault, ordering an apology and $6,150 in compensation. The council admits mistakes, vowing to overhaul procedures to better support vulnerable residents.
