Colin and Patricia Wilson are desperate for a flat move due to the quality of their lives.

A man who worked tirelessly for others has been unable to have a shower or use a proper toilet for more than 18 months.

Colin, who was the manager of Citizen’s Advice Bureau in Irvine and an unemployed workers centre, dedicated his working life to help people fight injustice.“He can’t write any more, he shuffles and he can’t speak properly. He is a shadow of his former self.” We also treat our community members to special offers, promotions, and adverts from us and our partners.

“Being trapped in the flat is affecting his mental health but every time I go to the council, I get the same answer, ‘There is nothing available for him’. “Ever since I joined the council seven years ago, I have never been able to understand how the system works.
