Hey everyone. So firstly I am anaphylaxis and in January had reaction where I stopped breathing had to call 999 emergency response car attended but couldn't park outside the house because we live opposite Chinese takeaway and at night the parking is rediculous secondly I've just within the last month had 3 seizures and been diagnosed with epilepsy same thing happened had to call  999 ambulance couldn't get to the house they have to park in next street and run down. Now our council house is pretty small and not enough room to put me in the recovery position when I fit. Also there not enough room for my wife to sit with me while I have a bath as I have to be attended what are the odds of us being moved on medical grounds or am I wasting my time

    Hey @miket368, I'm sorry that your question wasn't answered all these months ago. I want to check in with how you're doing now?

    Did you contact the council to see about moving at all? It does sound like there's a real risk to your health staying in that place. I don't think reaching out to the council would be a waste at all.

    If it's still something you're thinking about but haven't started yet, we have an advice section on getting more suitable housing from your council: Getting more suitable accommodation and moving house | Disability charity Scope UK

    Let us know how you're doing!
