What are your experiences of housing support and dealing with changes to housing costs?

Looking and applying for an affordable home had become stressful.

Leasing agents and landlords still discriminative against single parents and asking for job title, earnings from job and reference from employer.

I have justified I am a full time carer and provided proof of all rent payments from last 3 years.

One leasing agent "lost" my application although sent by email.

Other never replied.
