My mum has only left the house twice in two years - both times by ambulance

A man fears his mum could be fatally injured if she stays living in the same home.

Veronica Cuthbertson, 76, has been unable to leave her flat in Walton for the last two years except to go by ambulance to the Royal Liverpool Hospital. Son Kevin said the flat is no longer accessible for his mum, who has become increasingly unstable on her feet and prone to falls.

Kevin said he has contacted Torus, who own the property, on numerous occasions to ask if his mum and dad can be moved to a more accessible home. The couple have since been moved from Band D to Band C - a category which gives them 'medium priority' when bidding for other homes on the Property Pool.
