The reality of life in social housing in Greater Manchester
Noise nuisance is the biggest problem in social housing and can lead to violence, ill health and even suicide if it’s not resolved.
In his high rise flat in Eccles, 55-year-old John is blasting out Smooth FM morning, noon and night to the despair of his downstairs neighbour, 20-year-old mum, Jess.
Meanwhile, housing officer Lyndon Pugh is trying to help a tenant with a recurring habit of hoarding household waste. 68-year-old Mary’s high-rise flat in Ashton-Under-Lyne is literally a tip, with rubbish piling high in every room.
And housing officer Paul Spencer is dealing with ruffled feathers in Dukinfield. A pair of cockerels in a tenant’s garden are providing a 4am wake up call for the neighbours. But Paul will have to get his hands dirty to resolve the problem.
