Subject: Urgent Assistance Required with Accommodation and Support
Dear Mr Allen,
I am reaching out as a Doncaster resident of 15 years, urgently seeking help with my housing situation following recent traumatic events, which left me disabled, ill and vulnerable. I've also contacted Sally Jameson, our MP, regarding this and she has assured me she will investigate.
My background involves enduring years of domestic violence from my partner, which escalated to a severe assault in March, resulting in hospitalisation for eight days. Also, I am currently battling cancer, which has involved intensive treatment and multiple hospitalisations. Due to complications, my treatment caused partial paralysis on my right side, leading to an official diagnosis of FND (Functional Neurological Disorder). The result of this is that I am physically unstable, can only walk a few steps and require a mobility aid. In addition, I am managing severe anxiety and depression, which previously led to a suicide attempt and a subsequent voluntary admission to Tickhill Hospital. With ongoing support from the South Community Mental Health Team, I have been making progress in managing my mental health.
A few weeks ago, after another hospital discharge, my ex-partner forced me out of our home, effectively rendering me homeless. The council initially provided temporary accommodation at a Premier Inn, in an accessible room. My children did not come with me as it was appropriate that they maintain stability for their schooling and I stayed nearby for my own hospital treatment. Since being placed on the Platinum band for housing need, I have bid for many houses. This week I have put in a bid for (you need to add it Laura)
After a brief stay at a crisis house, the council offered a room at Prime Lodge Doncaster, but it is entirely unsuitable for my needs as a disabled, domestic violence survivor. I am fearful of staying in a male-dominated hostel, with no accessibility features and my support team agrees that this environment would seriously impact my mental health. The accommodation does not fit my mobility needs.
I was told by your staff that my fears were not ‘valid,’ that I could not expect ‘The Ritz’ and I was ‘lucky' not to be on the streets.’ I can assure you that I do not feel in the slightest bit lucky. These comments from council staff were deeply distressing and I am sure you will be disappointed to learn of the conduct of your staff.
After hours on the phone and struggling to manage with a crutch and suitcase, I became overwhelmed on Tuesday night, (is that correct Laura) reached a crisis point and was intent on ending my life. Ultimately I rescued by the police at Doncaster train station. They will have a full report of what happened that night, should you wish for clarification.
I am currently in a Travelodge funded by a friend, but this is temporary until Saturday morning and I am without long-term solutions. My mental health and medical support teams have appealed to the council on my behalf, but despite being in the highest-priority band for housing, I have seen no progress. The council has delayed action until Friday, disregarding my urgent need for appropriate accommodation.
The treatment I’ve received has been heartbreaking, especially during such a vulnerable period in my life. I am reaching out to you in the hope that you might intervene to help secure suitable accommodation. Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
Sincerely,
