A mum claims her disabled son is at risk of injuring himself every time he leaves the house following a two-year battle to get a drop kerb installed outside their home in Oldham.
Michelle Robinson, 46, says her son Terry, who has a genetic bone disorder, feels like a 'prisoner in is own home' as he has become too afraid to leave the house. The 26-year-old has brittle bones and worries the force of dropping his wheelchair on to the pavement could cause him to break something.
Terry currently only leaves the house for essential reasons, as Michelle claims she has been continuously passed around since raising the issue with her housing association, First Class Homes, after moving into their home in Failsworth two years ago.
