Housing Association/Neighbours/Taking over Tenancy

Hello oldngrumpy
I am really sorry to read abut the difficult situation you have been facing with your neighbours for such a long time. It must be incredibly frustrating to have experienced bullying and to feel your complaints have not been adequately addressed by the Housing Association or the police.
Writing a respectful letter expressing your gratitude for the opportunity to stay and outling the behaviours you have endured over the years can be a way to communicate your concerns effectively.
It is unlikely that clearly stating your boundaries and expressing your concerns would harm your tenancy rights. However, before taking that step perhaps you should consult with Shelter or similar organisations who will be familiar with tenancy rights and can advise you on this.
Remember to take care of your mental health during this process, and seek support from your GP or mental health team. They should be able to help you cope with the stress and emotional toll of the bullying. I hope that your Housing Association takes your concerns seriously and works towards finding a resolution that ensures your well being and a peaceful living environment for you.
All the best MW
