My mum's been offered a council flat back near her home town! She has to go and view it on Tuesday, but IMO, unless it's appalling, it has to be better than the shitty flat in Easton that she's gotright now. If she accepts it (and she'd better had ;)), that'll be a really amazing result for about 6 months of hard, hard work and stress.

If I was athletically capable of it, I'd be doing triple backflips right now *beam*

Ah - over here, every local council owns and/or manages a chunk of housing for low-income households. Unfortunately, the housing prices in about 60% of the country (everywhere from the Midlands southwards) have sky-rocketed, so getting a council house is competitive. You need to have a lot of points for various social needs, and the person with the most points is nominated for the next vacancy. For example, mom had about 100 points, mostly for mental health needs and harassment in her current housing. And I've had to argue hard for pretty much every one of those points - mucho stress for an introvert :(
