That is absolutely disgusting Bev,

I am so sorry your having to live like this it's unacceptable and H/A's like L/A's have no legal duty of care which I find appalling However they do have an obligation to carry out repairs in a reasonable amount of time,and having rotten windows which let in the elements and they know about it and have ignored the problem for months is unacceptable.

I am pretty sure sure this wall fall under housing disrepair and you can take further action under section 82 environmental protection act 1990,we did against the council and also claimed compensation,we won our case.

I really hope you get this sorted asap,
