A family of seven who are living in a three-bedroom house say they have been “fobbed off” by the council over their cramped living conditions.
Corroll Pereira, his wife and five sons, moved to the property in the Kenley area of Croydon in October last year.
However, with members of the family having a range of complex needs, Corroll insists they should be a priority case for getting a larger property and says the current shortage of space is having a “detrimental” effect on them.
