taken the responsibility to look at evidences; the
allegations made against her son (physical
assault, letting his dog on the loose) have not
been proven. She said that on the 9th August in
court the Judge ordered Enfield Council to move
her son to a 2-bedroom flat but the Council
wants/plans to evict him instead. She said that
the Council has no grounds to apply for her son’s
eviction.
She said that her son has a one bedroom flat. She
said that he does not want to live there. She said
that he needs a 2-bedroom flat with the plan that
his cousin could stay with him to provide
emotional support. She said that her son has
everything he needs in the flat. She told me that
her son is very independent in activities of daily
living; his personal care is extremely good; he
cooks for himself, maintains the flat and takes
responsibility for his bills. She told me that he
has no financial difficulties/no debts.
She said that her son has a work history. In 2010
he was planning to set up a business in the
entertainment industry. He has also built
websites in relation to this. At present he is not
in employment. He is in receipt of Employment
Support Allowance but needs to make an
application for Personal Independent Payment.
I asked her if she thinks her son has a mental
illness; she told me that he suffers from stress
and anxiety due to issues with the neighbours but
does not think he has a mental illness. She said
that the judged looked at evidence and did not
grant a warrant in October 2018 for a mental
health act to take place at her son’s flat.
I asked Ms Cordell if she thinks her son could
benefit from support from the community team.
She said that he could do with some support but
"we should stop labelling him as being
delusional as he is not delusional”.
