MUM AND CHILDREN IN LIMBO AFTER LOSING BRUM HOME
A MUM has told how her family quickly spiralled into homelessness after they were kicked out of the home they lived in for 12 years.
Angela Carruthers, from Birmingham, said she and her three children had to suffer "inhumane" conditions after they were forced to moved three times when they lost their home in the city.
Angela, who works full-time, has been homeless for two years now and is currently living in temporary accommodation after her landlord decided to sell the family's home.
The mum said the family spent five days without heating, hot water or power after thry moved into their current accommodation - late at night after a long shift at work.
