Nurse living in a house with no back wall as builders 'abandon' £57k renovation

A nurse who worked in intensive care during Covid is living in a house with no back wall after builders walked out during a renovation project.

Catherine Lewis, 44, saved up for years to turn her home into a sanctuary from her stressful NHS hospital work, but is now forced to wash up in her bathroom sink and mop up puddles from the floor when it rains.

She says she was quoted £57,000 for the work and told it would take 12 weeks - but has been living in a building site for more than a year.
