A wheelchair user felt so 'trapped' in his own home he tried to kill himself twice – after a housing association allegedly dubbed his requests for a ramp 'unreasonable'.

Disabled Neil Berry, 31, alleges Plus Dane Housing have forced him to be dangerously confined in his house since February 5 2017 when he returned from a month-long hospital stay.

The former chef, who suffers with spinal problems, says he is physically unable to leave his home without a ramp, and has attempted to take his own life twice after months indoors.

And incensed Neil, from Liverpool, claims that Plus Dane have allegedly even dubbed the request for a ramp 'unreasonable'.

Neil said: "I've been stuck in this house ever since I came home. If there was a fire I wouldn't be able to get out.
