If you read back some threads you will see he just started work and is going forward in life. So is it such a bad thing to do what you can to get a start in life?

Must be great that you 2 can sit up on your pedestal and look down at folk eh ?

Totally agree with you Rod.... the couple are trying to move ahead with their lives and looking for a bit of help, if the guys on the site don't want to help then they can "butt out" and leave it to others...I think best to talk to there council and see where they are on the list, if well down the pecking order then they can resort to 'husband left me, too stressful living with parents etc...need a home quick...I thought that single parent (soon) would go top of list. Anyway there are more experienced people than me on this site and I would use any method available... the same as most people did/would do under the situation.

Best of luck

Hi mate just been looking on the notts housing website to see what they are doing etc.. now 1 thing that concerns me is they only have 29,000 homes. that is a small amount brum has 71,000 and a waiting list of 39,000.

here is a link to there housing Allocations policy would be good to look through that to see if you can get on the higher list also to see were you sit! i would not expect you to get housed unless you was on band 1 or 2.

Code:

http://www.nottinghamcityhomes.org.uk/documents/find_a_home/Housing_Allocations_Policy_lowres.pdf

now if i was you i would look at housing associations as well, as you work they are more likely to consider you. here is some links to your housing associations in your area, i would apply to them all.
also just type housing associations in notts in google there are more there!

Code:

http://www.ncha.org.uk/Housing/AffordableRent.aspx

here is a list of places you can try, as i dont know were you live or want to move to, so best if you look!

Code:

http://www.zettai.net/find/nottinghamshire/housing-associations-and-co-operatives/

i just want to post this bit: Why are people putting this guy down? most people jump on things when "there" tax is being spent on things they dont like! this is a young family thats just starting out in life, Does he not desirve a break? Do people ever wonder why there are lots of single parents about? if they have to start there life out living on top of each other, then they dont have a very good chance for the future! the young people of this country need help so whats the problem??

Good luck mate, and try not stress about it. and i am sure if you have more questions there will be people that can help!
