Hi can anyone give me some advice ?

I am living in temporary accommodation and have been for over a year now it’s a 3 bed flat first floor and i have an autistic child who finds it very hard most days. He need more space and hopefully a garden, it’s very cramped and it’s stressful. There’s been ongoing leaks from the flat above and there’s mould in the bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom. I’m also an asthmatic and my asthma had been so bad lately it’s affecting me mentally and physically and i’m worried about my kids health, us there any extra help or support i can get to push to get rehoused quicker it’s really taking its toll on everyone.

Heya @cathyod1812 and welcome to the community.

That doesn't sound easy for either of you, I'm so sorry. Have you spoken to your council regarding this? Or mentioned the mold to the temporary housing folk? Has your son had a needs assessment yet? That might help.
