After being in temporary accommodation for nearly a year, we have finally been offered and accepted for a house. It’s with a housing association rather than directly with the council but still. It’s a brand new build with a lovely big garden. We no longer have to stress about trying to find a house and we have a good secure tenancy. Thank god

Aw, brilliant news!! I lost my house and was re-housed by the council on the most notorious council estate in the town. Three years later I got offered a HA house, where my daughter and I still live. The feeling of euphoria was overwhelming xx

Congratulations OP! Can we have an online housewarming thread? Everyone bring a bottle glass, that type of thing?

Soubriquet · 16/05/2024 14:09

Thank you! We’ve still got a way to go before we are truly settled. I need a new bed and mattress for example. I’ve been sleeping on a mattress on the floor. Luckily both dc have a proper bed. But now we are actually in a house, we can start to do these things one by one

Congratulations!!!

I remember getting the letter to say we'd got a house after renting same place for 10 years and having to spend months in temp accommodation.

All the best to you and yours in your new home!
