Re: Houses In Church Empty
Mick & I were in our office today, (the lounge bar at the Stag), we got talking about these houses, we and several others are on benefits and renting private housing in the area, we are middle age+ a bit. We went for a quick look at these houses, they are far superior to the places we are living in, instead of just knocking these places down why can't they look for like minded people to ourselves that would be prepared to move in and form a community that would enjoy the modern facilities that are obviously on offer in comparison to the places that we are already living in?
One of my main problems so far as claiming my rent for example is that because the house I am renting is a gable end, the council think the house is too large for a single person, therefore they won't pay the full rent.
Surely if something could be arranged so far as these houses are concerned instead of the waste of knocking down newer houses that have a better building standard than the old terraced houses wouldn't it be a benifit to the community and people like us?
