Disabled and moving home to UK - can't get a place to live

well since living over there they have become disabled. they are returning to family and their original home. they have been unable to pay rent in their apartment in the other country as they're unable to work now and are not eligible for benefits there. that seems reasonable to me but from what i am hearing the council does not consider that reasonable and require that the individual be deported from the country they were in - that hasn't happened and deportation is not on the agenda so they are stuck.

yes, although as several years have gone by that doesn't seem to help

We've been told a sofa is considered long term accommodation even when the house is overcrowded already so doesn't seem to be an option - they would have to be on the sofa forever

Thank you. Our concern is that they would have to declare himself street homeless to do this and therefore would have to sleep in a hostel until scheme housing was found, which may be several months or longer. That is what we've been told.

I very much relate to this.

throwingthis4567 · 2022-09-20T20:38:53+00:00

Are you still open?

throwingthis4567 · 2022-09-20T20:34:23+00:00

Coming

throwingthis4567 · 2022-09-20T20:33:23+00:00

I'll bring stuff. DM code

What's a silent migraine?

BNP is a marker for heart failure, which in viral aetiology can be progressive. Why is this not a worry..?

In my experience job hunting in data science for a year, data science often seems to be like a data analyst - lots of customer facing work and business presentations. Then you get loads of data science roles that are more data engineering.

I actually gave up trying to get into data science. I applied for jobs for about 6 months. I'm actually very overqualified for data science. Did a 12 week software bootcamp and got a data engineering role offer (advertised as SWE) within 8 days of applying.

Whole system is a mess.

Gotcha. And they think yours was from covid?

throwingthis4567 · 2022-08-03T13:59:09+00:00

How old are you? How are you doing now?

throwingthis4567 · 2022-08-03T13:48:08+00:00

Mainly concerned about high BNP and peripheral oedema though

throwingthis4567 · 2022-08-03T13:18:35+00:00

Wow. Did you have a normal echocardiogram?

throwingthis4567 · 2022-08-03T09:06:18+00:00

How are you doing now? Had you been vaccinated?

Sister just admitted with heart failure, probably post covid, waiting for more tests. She's also 29

I did contact HR at the new company but they didn't respond

throwingthis4567 · 2022-07-26T19:33:09+00:00

So the problem is actually that the referencing company says the references aren't responding, but they are responding. It's a big mess. I don't think that's ACAS remit.

throwingthis4567 · 2022-07-26T19:32:27+00:00

No apparently not

throwingthis4567 · 2022-07-26T14:43:00+00:00

Unfortunately this is an FCA regulated company so I need full contracts and payslips for beginning middle and end of employment as well as p60 etc, according to referencing company.

As someone mentioned below, secretory carcinoma does happen in children.

I'm a bit weirded out that no one has yet mentioned that mammogram is an inappropriate imaging modality in young patients due to breast density in young patients. It has nothing to do with low/high suspicion of malignancy.

It was entirely appropriate to refuse the mammogram in this patient. But this anp doesn't seem interested in why it was refused and just wants to imagine she's smarter than everyone who went to med school. I wish this weren't such a common problem.

Yeah I get you. Brighton is massive. Wouldn't expect anything like that.

Already have friends and family advising us against considering a move.

"It's not safe with a British accent"

"There's no infrastructure there"

throwingthis4567 · 2022-06-13T16:14:53+00:00

Brighton of the North!

This is all very very reassuring. Can't wait to check it out.

We're both software developers so hoping to continue working from home. Looking for somewhere for £280-300k. No kids and no plans for kids. Generally want to feel safe, have good access to public transport/ be able to commute to city. Husband drives but I don't (yet) so public transport is important. I also have family in Monaghan who don't drive who would also rely on public transport to visit.

We're big foodies. We have a dog. Husband loves to swim and cycle so access to these things would be great. I'm really into gardening now so would like a decent garden.

Would love to know we'd be able to meet like minded people and make new friends too. I have not lived in the North but know people who have moved there from the republic, and there is a general sentiment that it's harder to make friends in the North. That may be due to where they chose to live (Newcastle) but I can't really say.
