I would like some advice please on a difficult situation that my family is in. My daughter, her partner and child were evicted from their flat last year due to unpaid rent during the pandemic. They have been living with my husband and I since just before Christmas. The agreement is that they pay us money for their upkeep and can stay with us until they get themselves financially more stable and can rent another property. They are making arrangements to pay the rent arrears that they owe and are currently saving for a deposit. However, they have had problems with being paid Universal Credit this month and this has made them short of money. There have been a few other financial difficulties and I am beginning to worry that they will not be able to get a place of their own. Relationships are now becoming strained - my husband and I are finding it difficult living with a boisterous toddler as we are used to a quiet life and we are finding it difficult sharing a house with a young family at our age. Unfortunately the situation is beginning to depress me somewhat and I am becoming quite anxious. I suffer from severe arthritis and have trouble coping with the mess in my home. My daughters partner works in a care home and this, along with my Grandaughter at nursery, is putting my health at risk from Covid and other illnesses. I have had four bad Colds since they have been living with us and also a serious infection that required antibiotics. To be quite Frank I am at my wits end and I don't know what to do. I dispair that they will never leave.
I've got another 'keen'... Ouch!
