Hi,
So I applied for disability housing in April and got a swift rejection to my application due to the fact I hadn't been living in the borough for 5 years+ (I had been living in the borough since birth and only moved officially, 2-3 years ago to help my opa pass over) I appealed on the same day (11th April) and didn't hear anything back from them until I chased on the 28th June when they told me they hadn't received anything from me about an appeal, I forwarded my response and they then said they'd pass it onto the appeal team with the consideration for the fact that I am moving back to the borough as my carers live there and I am needing more carer help with certain things, they said that this would take 28 weeks, but what I am confused about is it 28 weeks from the day they found my email which was the 28th June or from 11th April when I had sent off the original appeal to the right email address?
Has anyone had any dealings with housing? I am losing my mind at the fact that I can barely manage myself at home, I also can't move my wheelchair into my place because my place has stairs so having to (on no leg ability days) stay in my room and drag myself to bathrooms, I feel pathetic. it's effecting my mental health and I don't think they care.
