A couple with young children face eviction after refusing to pay rent for their one-bedroom flat. Couple Kate and Jason claim they've encountered a number of issues since moving into the property.
The couple, who have three kids, claim they can only wash at the children's grandparents' house and that a number of serious problems with their accommodation have not been fixed after two years. Kate, 29, a full-time mum to her eight-year-old, one-year-old, and three-month-old sons, and her partner Jason, 49, a tattoo artist, moved for security reasons into their one-bedroom flat on Tamworth Road, Long Eaton, in February 2021, Derbyshire Live reports.
They claim the problems include a broken heater, ill-fitted windows, a broken shower - forcing them to wash at Jason's parents' house - broken floorboards, and a heavy cupboard that fell from the kitchen wall, which Kate claims nearly seriously injured her and one of her children.
