I am in shared accommodation with Martin & Co and have been for the last year and half, I have been happy living here so i signed a new 12 month contract, unfortunately my mother has been in hospital for the past 3 months and has been told that she is unable to return home without somebody with her 24/7, I called into the office before my current contract expired and the new one 'kicked in' to discuss this and the girl i spoke with said she was sure there would be something they could do for me but would need to speak to the director and that she would call me the next day, a couple of days past with no contact from them so i called the office and spoke to David (presumably the director) he was aware of my predicament (so why no phone call), he was very blunt with me stating that there are no cooling off periods in the contract and the only thing they could do is re advertise my room but with that there would be no guarantee as the property has had empty rooms for months and i would also have to pay £120 to re advertise! He continued to agree that circumstances change but showed no empathy whatsoever, if i could see him through the phone I'm certain that he had pound signs in his eyes and an empty space where his heart should be! so i am having to stay here whilst my mother is having to pay £650 per week to stay in a nursing home instead of going home, my question is would David like this to be happening to his mother? I think not, I will be asking my landlord the same and seeking advise from citizens advice, I am not asking a lot I am just wanting to be with my mother so she can be where she belongs
