Hi,In October last year the Government announced a support fund for those on low income. This is distributed by local Authorities so your son should contact them regarding this. See link, https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/household-support-fund-guidance-for-local-councils/household-support-fund-final-guidance-for-county-councils-and-unitary-authorities-in-englandYou can refer him for a needs assessment from his local Authority https://www.gov.uk/apply-needs-assessment-social-servicesIt may take a while to assess him because there are backlogs in a lot of areas.For the cracked walls then he should contact his landlord.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
