They’ve made my life purposely hell.
I moved into Glen Carne due to becoming homeless resulting from a family illness, I was assigned a support worker who I was told would assist me with completing different goals who would eventually help with moving me forward towards living in my own individual place.
I suffer with anxiety and depression and believed that having a support worker would be a great start to improve. I Believed that someone with their head screwed on offering me advice is definitely what I needed. I was suppose to have weekly meetings but they rarely happened. Every time I had some recent anxious thoughts I wanted to be open for advice shared it with my support worker. he swiftly shut me down with constant verbal sarcastic abuse about my struggles with my anxiety.
After a lot of thinking I decided to talk to the management and request for a change of support worker, I was assigned a another support worker for 5 months and then he suddenly left out the blue, And then again I was assigned another support worker who was definitely the best one their.
I must have been there over 2 years before getting any support towards living independently.
Then after 3 years they gave me a 3 months notice and then extended it by 1 month every month a week before my notice ended until one month they didn’t extend it and told me I had a week left. They told me I would have my own individual place by now.
Now they have pushed me by no choice and by using fear of forced homelessness into moving into a wet house, (they lied telling me it was a dry house) I personally don’t have any problems with addiction and feel very vulnerable and unsafe in my current living environment that Glen Carne have moved me to.
I was in band B at glen Carne the highest I could be possible for home choice, But now since moving out of Glen Carne, I have to reapply for home choice with will take anywhere up to six months to get back on the banding. Glen Carne moving me onwards has done nothing but complicate my ability to get my own individual personal accommodation. Instead of being kicked out they should of allowed me the extra months as they knew it would take up to 6 months to reapply for where I was at
Glen Carne.
All They said about my move on accommodation was lies and the end result of me moving has caused my life to me more difficult than it needed to be and feel I’ve gone back steps as I have to wait another 6 months to get where I was while at
Glen Carne
I don’t recommend moving here people are just to scared to open up about their bad experiences in fear of repercussions… not saying they don’t help certain people with the right support worker but you could also have a similar experience like mine
