Housing association, replacing my kitchen. I dont have access to use my gas cooker, kitchen sink neither the electric in kitchen, as it has been all removed.
My family was forced to eat out yesterday, however today we eat from the floor of our lounge with a microwave and bathroom sink to wash the dishes in. It comes worse, as they plan to not refit till next week.

Well, if you own your home and you are doing the renovations of your own free will then there is nothing you can do until it is finished. If you are renting and you are left for a week with out these things, then ask your landlord for some kind of break on your rent for the week you are with out your kitchen supplies. If you are a renter and thoes things were in the apartment when you signed the lease the land lord has to fix any problem within 48 hours or are required to give you a break on the rent or some other compensation. Good luck.

did they warn you about the repairs?
if they gave you ample time and warning, then the only thing you can recoup is any out of pocket costs (ie buying a small portable stove to cook food or a small refrigerator to keep food cold). eating out is your choice, and not something the housing association has to reimburse you for.
I've washed dishes in my bathtub when my sink pipes busted. I didn't hold my landlord responsible for that small inconvenience.

Contact the association. Find out if there is anything they can do for you (i.e., help pay for a meal a day, or something). But odds are, you're out of luck. I feel your pain.
