Help with housing

Does Anton know if a housing officer and a early help worker who are actively trying to move a family can make it more urgent and possibly override any protocols that(in my opinion) may not go in our favour (such as a management move due to disrepair) may consider the sensory needs and the spaciual needs of autistic family members 

idealy(snd I do know this may not be a possibility) I’d like a dining room or if the consideration can be made a spare bedroom that can be used as a dual purpose room A have all my buisness equipment in cupboards,lockers and filing cabinets so it’s put away after work hours and B have a cupboard for our adhd autisim stuff(like I want to get a bag with my defenders a water bottle and some other bits in for my sensory needs whilst im working at gigs and a smaller bag that I can repack for general trumps) and sensory stuff in and when nkt used for work it could be a sensory space wirh perhaps an old tv in hooked up to a dvd player for calming DVDs like music or trains 

and if I was lucky to get 2 spare rooms of snynkind it would be nice to have a kids playroom room 

but like I say im doubtful this can be done right now so I might need to have less work stuff a smaller bag and keep it in my own room in one cupboard and have a smaller filling cabinet

  • I know I’ll likely not meet the criteria for a need for an extra room for a disability since that applies to sleeping needs but do you think I could fight for a dining room so I can have that separate office space away from the distractions of a house full of 3 other people using the bed rooms and living room? Just so I have a quiet space like I say out of office hours it’s be a dedicated sensory room wirh all work stuff stored out of sight
