Residents 'unable to shower or open doors due to faults' at East Belfast independent living facility

Residents living in an East Belfast independent living facility say they have been unable to shower or move about the building properly as they wait weeks for repairs to be made.

Maureen Boyd, chair of the Inverary Fold Tenants Committee says that there are a range of problems within the building, including broken showers and fire doors, which is making life very difficulty to the elderly residents who live there.

She said that she and a number of other residents have been unable to shower for seven weeks due to their regulators being broken so that the water coming out if is either "freezing cold or scalding hot".
