Moving council property

[Asstragal]

My mother in law has just received the dad need of both lung and liver cancer, not operatable.

She lives with her husband in a council house who has kidney disease and heart failure and is on nightly dyalasis.

The property has 3 rooms and stairs.

She is not able to climb the stairs and her mobility is poor.

They have bought a wheel chair.

They want to move to a same level smaller house.

Help

Hi , firstly I'm so sorry to read that you have so many problems with your mother in laws health but just wanted to offer some advice with regards to their housing situation, the council would welcome the chance of regaining a 3 bed house for a family and hopefully will give them priority for a bungalow/ g/f flat, you just need to provide them with all of their medical information and why their current property isn't suitable, best wishes

You should definitely reach out to the council and explain everything—they’ll likely need all the medical paperwork to understand why the current place isn’t working.
If they’re renting privately or considering that as an option, having a good property manager could make things easier. I’ve come across companies offering Santa Clara property management services that help find accessible rentals and handle all the details.
