have you applied to your council for a lower flat they usually send someone out to assess you and your needs then prioritise according to needs and size of waiting list and area you want to live

Do the lift repairers know you need the lift? Might have to kill ground floor occupant to get their flat. :-0 Be proactive, find where you want to live and offer to swap, perhaps.

In 6months time they are installing new lifts, so they are going to be out of action for a while
