Betiel Mahari was evicted from her home in the demolished Loughborough Park Estate and her rent in a new flat was raised from £109 per week to £265. Because her work is on a zero hours contract, her housing benefit claim is constantly being reassessed causing delays and errors in payments and making her in arrears. The Guinness Partnership are now taking her to court seeking a possession order to evict her and her two young boys. Guinness charge her neighbours £100 pw less for similar flats.
