  • “My friend started to wear the hijab. One day she went to the post office. At the counter the clerk serving her began speaking to her loudly and very slowly.. continuously asking her if she was understanding. My friend said there is not need to speak to me in this way. My friend was born and has lived in the UK for 30 years and ever since she has began wearing the hijab people has been treating her as if she doesn't know anything, does not speak the language.  In terms of terrorism, I am more wary of certain areas I am going to. I wouldn't feel very safe in areas of predominantly white working class like the Docklands for instance or certain areas in Hounslow. I wouldn't feel comfortable if it is late at night or I am on my own because  maybe it is just in my head but I hear of what is happening to muslim women being stripped of their scarves  off on the street, being shouted at, called names I just wouldn't feel same.  It happens frequently, I heard one lady was beaten up in Fulham and that's very west London and she was walking and a guy was very aggressive to her. She was wearing jilbab, the full cover, and he started to pull off her clothes and being shouting to go back to her country, effing terrorist, it is more like people are encouraged to come out and feel hatred towards others.” A., October 2016.

  • Drugs, theft, sexual harassment, assault, serious injury, lack of security and violence are not rare at Meath Court and with the lack of security cameras and security personnel, these are unpunished leaving residents fearful and highly stressed.

  • The shipping containers are adjacent to a housing estate and looking from outside it will be hard to imagine that people are living in the containers.
    20231001_105530.jpg
  • Meath Court is a development that was built in 2017 by Ealing Council as a solution to help people who found themselves homeless and provide a better alternative to bed and breakfast. However, the shipping containers are unfit and unsafe for habitation. The development is deteriorating beyond repair and dangerous to live in. Broken windows hanging in the air, handrails with sharp metals coming off.

  • 'Containers homes should not exist. I am fighting for the goal to see this place closed down. I don't wish for any family to suffer as we do living in these conditions' - says Karimah
    _DSC0459.jpg
  • Women who lives in the residence speak of the drug use in the development, continuous thefts and intimidations they receive by men that jump the gate and enters the development. The area is rife with criminal activity and a meeting point for local drug dealers. Police and the Council have been called countless of times, but they feel ignored.

  • The shipping containers is almost cut in half with one side largely housing women and families and the other for men, those with addiction problems or mental health issues. This is the side where the common laundry room, the post boxes are placed leaving women completely vulnerable and often being a prey of intimidation and very unsettling things like finding used condoms in the laundry room floor.
    _DSC0554.jpg
  • The space inside the shipping containers are not fit for the purpose of homes. There is hardly any space to move around a table, beds, etc. The overcrowding conditions are terrible and those most being impacted are children.  Francesca's son sleeps in the 'kitchen' area as there is no enough space for him to sleep anywhere else.

  • "Whenever you go to the council to explain your situation, it does not feel like they are even listening. They seem to just not care. They make you feel as if you are lying to be able to get on a higher priority band. But they should come and live the overcrowding. They just don't care." Alison.
