Glasgow MS sufferer misses out on 'once in a lifetime' safari as flat roof caves in

A Glasgow woman with MS has lost out on the 'holiday of a lifetime' and has been left almost £2000 out of pocket after a costly ceiling leak at her housing association home.

Jacqueline Smith was looking forward to a dream trip to Kenya for an epic safari on June 5 but sadly had to remain at home as she feared she would return to a flooded adapted flat.

The 60-year-old has been using an empty bucket to deal with the deluge of water after workers from the Wheatley Homes Glasgow failed to find the source of the leak, reports the Record.
