Flooding 2022
My client’s car was recently stolen from the front of their house, The car had a lot of the children’s school books, car seat and sensory supports for special needs. Unfortunately the car was set alight and all items were lost and uninsured.
My client has had numerous unexpected expenses and had been trying to recover from the 2022 flood event by planning to build a tiny home, They have attempted to secure a bank loan to assist with all the expenses however have been declined.
Presently, there are 9 family members living under the same roof and sharing one bathroom. My client’s husband has had to take stress leave from work due to recent mental health concerns which has greatly reduced the family’s income.
My client’s mother lives nearby in a retirement village, and she has significant health issues. She often requires emergency and respite care, however due to the home not being completed this has impacted my client’s ability to be able to assist.
