What are your experiences of housing support and dealing with changes to housing costs?

Housing is one of the most difficult thing right now in the UK. In fact, I and my kids are struggling at the moment. We've been placed in a hotel, a travel lodge where we cannot cook. We are buying food on daily basis and it's so stressful. We are still hoping to be helped, but nothing has changed. It's quite stressful to live like this. No fridge, no microwave is allowed here. We are living like I don't even know what to say because there are no houses available in the London at the moment. It's really a lot of struggle. I was asked to look for a private rent and it's so difficult. I've not been able to find anything. The houses are very expensive. I don't even know where to start. I haven't been able to get any help in that regard.
