Two hotels in the Erewash area of Derbyshire are housing roughly 400 asylum seekers
A council and its regional NHS service have written to the Home Office expressing "serious concerns" about two hotels housing asylum seekers.Residents voiced concerns during a meeting on Wednesday.
"The accommodation… has been organised by the Government Home Office and their accommodation partners Serco, and not by Erewash Borough Council, though we are doing everything we can to help both the local community and the asylum seekers." However, Charli, who also lives in the area, hit out at the "mob mentality" on local social media pages and urged people to have "compassion".
"It's the fact that there are many documented issues… also it's the knock-on effect also on local services, healthcare, schools."
