I’ve had issues with a neighbour for 3.5 years (cannabis, loud music and harassment).
my housing association refuse to move me or deal with the situation. They tell me I have to get moved by the councils homechoice. The council say this is the housing associations issue. The police wouldnt charge. The council are now doing a occupational therapist refferal for the housing issue.
Has anyone had any Luck with these situations or any advise? This has made my autism really hard to cope with due to having no quiet safe home.
it’s very expensive to move privately where I live, so I really need them to move me.
thank you
Keep records of every problem.
Speak to / contact your local councillor / MP / police and crime commissioner.
As far as the loud noise is concerned contact environmental health at your local council. They may give you a device to monitor noise levels in your flat but will only act if the music is out of hours or above a certain volume. If you haven’t already got them get earplugs / headphones etc.
I am fortunate that I am in social (retirement) housing so the problems aren’t quite as bad apart from one neighbour fly-tipping some rubbish outside my bedroom window. My problems are mainly with the housing association itself. My flat is nice but the housing association’s service is dreadful.
