Indie Q

How are you managing housing costs?

Last year my landlord needed to move back to his property and it was difficult to find another house for the size of my family. As if that was not enough, the costs had doubled from pandemic times. It was not affordable. As a family, we had to resort to social housing as opposed to the private house that we were in. We are now in temporary accommodation awaiting a house to be allocated. It does not help much because temporary furnished flats are even more expensive. It is unbearable. I cannot talk about coping because we are not.
