No-fault eviction leaves mum searching for another new home after 22 moves in 20 years

A mum evicted by her landlord is searching for another new home after 22 moves in 20 years. Mum-of-four Jessica Whittam has been handed a Section 21 Notice.

This is known as a no-fault eviction and allows her landlord to force her to leave without having to offer a reason for the action. Jess said she has been advised to stay in her current property for the time being and is awaiting further support and advice from professionals.

It means that the 42-year-old needs to find her 23rd home after being settled in Stoke, Plymouth, for the past three years, Plymouth Live reports. Jess and her four children, aged 22, 19, 13 and 11, will go to live with her mum temporarily - but she is also caught up in the UK's housing crisis so the family may not be able to stay for long.
