Sharron Report 4 Apr 2019 14:18

My neighbour of some fifty years is now an eighty-two year old widow. She has an congenital eye condition so can hardly see now. She can also not feel her feet due to diabetes.

She has had a stair lift for about ten years or so but, for the last couple of years, it has not worked, in fact it has been condemned by the lift engineer. So, she has to use the stairs anyway with two worsening conditions.

She has tried to get something done about her stair lift, as has her son, but had given up.

I asked if they would mind me having a go at getting something done.

One call to our housing association, who do have a duty of care to us tenants after all.

This morning, a lift engineer came to measure her for the new stair-lift the council are having installed.

Sorry, boasting again!
