#AVOID AT ALL COSTS# #Serious Health, Safety, and Management Failures# My experience at The Bridge (managed by Abodus) was nothing short of horrific. Despite repeated complaints from myself and other tenants, the management failed to address severe issues, contractual obligations were not upheld and there was a persistent neglect of duties from Abodus, including: 1. Health & Hygiene: The flat was often left in unsanitary conditions. Despite regular reports, Abodus took no effective action. The situation worsened to the point where numerous infestations (maggots, flies, and mould) made the living space hazardous, with tenants choosing to live at home or with friends due to health concerns. 2. Drug Use: Evidence of large scale nitrous oxide (NO2), and other drug abuse along with distribution was repeatedly reported to management. However, Abodus failed to act, ignoring their legal obligation under the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016. Their inaction left tenants exposed to an unsafe environment which could have been fatal. 3. Security & Fire Safety: Abodus allowed knowingly unauthorized individuals continued access to use the flat for continuous drug use and selling, putting vulnerable individuals at risk of coercion and verbal violence. Despite CCTV monitoring the entrance, management refused to review the footage or intervene. Additionally basic Fire Safety standards were not upheld and full industrial sized NO2 canisters were often found near open flames, posing a serious fire hazard. 4. Property Damage: Due to continued unauthorized individuals entering the flat, many personal items were either stolen, broken or used to assist in drug use. This resulted in me losing over £900 in valuables over the contract due to theft and damage. Due to the poor security standards upheld by Abodus their own insurance company would not pay out for the damages incurred on myself while staying here. 5. Management Failures: The on-site team consistently ignored complaints, failed to enforce tenancy agreements, and provided false assurances of action. Requests for escalation to senior management were denied, and written/verbal commitments were never upheld. Despite months of reports from tenants and their guarantors, Abodus continually failed to provide a safe and habitable living environment. As a disabled student their negligence has had serious impacts on both my physical and mental health, forcing me to live in horrifying conditions for months. Given the overwhelming evidence of persistent neglect of duties, including emails and photographs, I reached out to impartial third parties such as Newcastle Council, Property Redress Scheme and Solicitors who all agreed that Abodus had neglected their duties. I then took Abodus to an independent tribunal and won compensation for this appalling experience. Do not book accommodation here unless you want your concerns ignored, your safety compromised, and your well-being disregarded. Disclosure: For full disclosure and fairness Abodus has repeatedly denied all of these claims verified by independent bodies. With Abodus’ own internal investigation stating that Abodus has not once broken their duty of care and has completely complied with all legal requirements including fire safety and health of all tenants affected.

My drawer in my room has been broken since I arrived and hasn't been fixed, despite me sending requests multiple times. To then be told 'were waiting for a part' (it's been seven months). The front door was broken for three weeks, making the place unsecure. The lift has broken multiple times over the year and has taken up to a week to fix. The water has gone off for a day at times.

John and Jamie the security are amazing and actually help us out with things where as some of the day staff do not help us with the things we need. Don’t know what me and my flat would do without Jamie and John to help us when we need it
