A family have been left feeling 'really low' and resorting to showering at their neighbours' houses because of a 'massive' leak at their Nottingham City Homes property. Helen Hyde, who has been living at the property in Clifton since 2008, explained the family had been using a portable toilet in the wake of problems caused by the bathroom leak.
Ms Hyde, who lives with her 25-year-old son who has autism, has complex regional pain syndrome, where a person experiences persistent severe and debilitating pain, fibromyalgia, a long-term condition that causes pain all over the body, and osteoarthritis, a condition that causes joints to become painful and stiff.
More than two weeks ago, the 55-year-old said she got in touch with Nottingham City Homes to say a pipe was leaking from her bathroom into her kitchen, causing damage. But, after a series of phone calls and workers going to the property, the problem has still not been permanently fixed.
