Dad-of-six desperate to move house as kids 'too traumatised' to enter room where mum died

A widowed dad claims he has been ignored by his housing association as he desperately seeks a house move to support his six grieving children.

The County Durham dad, who asked not to be named, said his bereaved children are struggling to live in the house where their mum died and they refuse to enter the bedroom where she passed away as it's too traumatising for them.

The children, aged between one and 16, suddenly lost their mum on April 8, 2022, after she choked in the early hours of the morning. One of her children tried to help resuscitate their mum, but she sadly died.
