An old friend who worked on the railways for 34 years was involved in accident last year, and as a result, suffers from severe epilepsy, of which he receives 'disablement allowance'. He decided to return to London, but find it hard to rent...agents and landlords seem to have twinned his allowance with DSS, and have told him either to go back to Norwich, or get his elder son (who he's staying with in Balham) to build an 'annexe'. Fine way to treat someone who left school straight to a job at 15, forty-two years ago...is there anywhere in London that caters for people who seems to have been criminalised on account of illness?
