Urgent Health and Safety Concerns at The Old Works Managed by MCR Homes
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my grave concerns regarding ongoing health and safety issues at The Old Works, High Wycombe, managed by MCR Homes. Despite attempts to address these issues directly with the management company, including an email sent over a week ago (please see the forwarded message below), there has been no acknowledgment, response, or action taken to rectify the situation.
The concerns include persistent water leaks leading to collapsing ceilings, mold growth, and trip hazards which pose significant risks to the health and safety of the residents. The situation is dire, and the lack of action from MCR Homes exacerbates the risk, demonstrating a disregard for resident welfare and safety regulations.
Furthermore, I would like to draw your attention to a distressing review on Trustpilot, highlighting the severity of the situation faced by residents, including those with very young children. The review details the dangerous living conditions, including mold and unmarked slip hazards, directly impacting the health and safety of a newborn and their family.

Given the lack of response from MCR Homes and the serious nature of these issues, I am seeking the council's intervention to ensure the necessary health and safety standards are enforced at The Old Works. It is critical that these hazards are addressed promptly to prevent further harm to the residents.
Additionally, I wish to remind you of a communication sent to you on 18/02/2024 regarding serious fire safety concerns within the building (email subject: "Fire Safety Concerns at the Old Works"). The absence of acknowledgment and the continued inaction by MCR Homes underscore the urgency for your intervention to ensure the safety of all residents. I am deeply concerned about the potential dangers we face without swift and decisive measures to rectify these safety issues.
I am willing to provide any additional information or documentation that may be required to assist in your investigation. I look forward to your prompt response and assistance in resolving these pressing issues.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,Next by date: 1 Mar 2024: MCR Homes answers to email but doesn't give much information.
