Nottingham man will lose a 'lifetime of memories' as he faces eviction from council home

A Nottingham man who faces eviction from his childhood home has said he will lose a lifetime of memories. Shaun Wooldridge, 61, was told to leave his home in Stockhill by Nottingham City Homes (NCH), weeks after his mum Jillian, who was renting the property, died on June 16.

The former Calverton colliery worker who now works in the asbestos industry, has until October 30 to leave the property, which he lives in with his wife, Sununta, and 12-year-old stepdaughter. Mr Wooldridge said following his mum's death he had filled a council tenancy form out incorrectly, which he says NCH refused to let him re-fill.

When approached by Nottinghamshire Live, a spokesperson for NCH said it would give him another opportunity to fill out the form. Mr Wooldridge, who has previously spoken of his fears of becoming homeless, said his stepdaughter is particularly afraid of losing her home.
