Are your names down in the social housing list? 

Are you currently living in privately rented or social housing property? How many bedrooms are there where you are now?

We have filled in form and been provisionally accepted we are under social services everyone knows this property we live in which is council is not safe or suitable for us to live in especially my nephew I've been dealing with my mental health for a long time I'm on antidepressants but I know we can't live here much longer

Have you tried contacting your MP?  Mine helped me get a house with garden for children. Worth a try.

Hi! This is totally depending on where you live and being in the U.K - look on "Right Move Longhurst" or Midland Heart's web-site. Put 50+ miles on there to see if they have any homes near you or even where you would like to move to. As they are all over the place. If so, please register with them else you will not be able to bid. They put homes on both sites everyday so, keep an eye out and Midland Heart will have a date and time when to bid. They often don't put these homes on the Council lists and Midland Heart have their own rules. Doctors/Consultant letters and Occupational Therapist reports may help too. We moved last year and it took us around five years. Good Luck!
