A man avoided eviction after bailiffs arrived to find a human wall formed outside his Bristol home. George Francis, who moved into his late uncle's property in Easton 10 years ago to care for him, found out two weeks ago that he is facing eviction.
He says this is due to an inherited loan that was taken out on the property and not repaid. Mr Francis said he moved into the property when he became a carer for his uncle, and jointly inherited the property with his brothers after their uncle passed away.
Mr Francis, who is a volunteer for several community projects in St Pauls, said that he has attempted to set up a repayment plan to mortgage company Together Money but the company has refused this. He says he was informed that he would face eviction yesterday (March 21) if the loan was not repaid in full.
