Wow. THANKYOU so much!
The notice is valid. I had it checked. However, I wasn’t given a new contract after the regs changed so it may not be valid (I don’t know if that makes sense). They’ve told the police, housing solutions and housing worker from Wallich that I’m safe from eviction. I’ve told them all that the landlord has tried to change locks illegally, been here yelling at me to get out and all sorts, but they say it’s all fine and I’ve misunderstood, due to illness. I am suffering a lot with PTSD right now, and those three have actually seen how much it is; mental health have said it doesn’t matter which makes people being able to help difficult e.g gp, landlord.
I know the version of tattle I use isn’t the same as others, it’s an older version, I totally get what you’re saying its not like to can see my screen. The council website simply gives ME a page saying to update device. I’m unable to access our nearest library (I have tried!); there’s two computers in each and they are very hard to get access to (non bookable).
I’ve been waiting for an adapted property that meets my medical needs (am physically disabled as well) for ten years. I’m already in top band. I can’t manage steps or ramps due to my condition being so bad now. It doesn’t help that landlord said I could stay until one was found.
I’ve accessed help with hoarding disorder myself, MIND, GP and social services all were unhelpful but my poor mental health makes it difficult for them to help. It wasn’t helped by someone stealing my bin and landlord refusing me one for 3 years.
I’m hoping to meet with council and Wallich tomorrow. We’ve a major storm warning though that may not happen, otherwise I’ll need to cancel (extreme wind and walking sticks is just asking to end up in a road and I can no longer manage a vehicle).
The problem is having both mental and physical disabilities and too young (albeit only by a couple of years) for adapted flats for my needs and having those needs recognise, my condition is rare and instead of engaging with specialists social services dismissed it and decided to concentrate on mental health - and, unfortunately those places are not accessible or adapted so I would need to pay for someone to get me inside, carry me up and down stairs for kitchen/bathroom (neither of which are adapted).
Council have known about my condition and that it can only worsen for almost 20 years! Unfortunately covid stopping everything for years and me stupidly staying away from people due to shielding has meant I’ve now been declared ‘better’.
Anyway, I thank you very very much!
not a disciplinary matter so don’t panic. They can’t force you to sign it but do keep in mind they can make your life low key difficult if you don’t so you may end up looking for a new employer out of choice. If they bring it up again say you’re aware of the matter and engaging with advice from your union on how to proceed and you’ll come back to them when that process is completed.
how have they managed to get upstairs 
yes, I’ve bought some spray and it should arrive in the next few days. Am I going to have to cover my whole house?! Fortunately, I don’t have any pets. I’ve had them a while but only ever seen the odd one and killed it and thought it was just a regular bug. I hoovered yesterday and emptied it straight away.
