Given notice due to dementia

[CoffeeHungry]

My mum rang me in tears today saying my grandads private landlord has given him 6 months notice due to him beeing unsafe there having dementia.

My grandad has lived alone in the bungalow in a quiet area for over 10 years. He's had dementia now for 2 and a half years and yes it has gotten worse but hes not done anything that harms him or others and we have been safe proofing things.

My mum is gutted as just this week his social worker has said its his best interests to stay at his bungalow and there's no reason for him to go into a care home yet. He has 3 careers go in for half an hour a day and a family member goes in atleast once a day too.

My worry is that he has forgotten where some things are where he lives now, moving him to somewhere where he dosent know will surely make him alot worse.

He cries every time we mention a care home or supported living and tells us he is happy where he is. My mums not told him yet, she dosent know how to and she doesn't know what to do. Is this even allowed?

Landlords can't do no fault evictions anymore.

I would be getting advice from shelter and CAB, that doesn't seem right to me!

Depends on the type of tenancy too.

I don't think you quite understand what is meant by not being able to do a no fault eviction. Landlords who have improvement notices on their properties can not evict. Thus if tenants complain about the condition of the property the LL can't just kick then out as punishment.

However LL can still evict to regain possession of their property so long as they give the appropriate notice period.

However in OP dad's case, if they have the comment about dementia in writing/text then I imagine there may be a case under discrimination law (age or disability).

Sounds rum. I don't think this is legal
