It also very much depends on where you live. A relative of mine recently got a council flat in Leeds and was only on the waiting list for around 4 months. A registered disabled friend of ours in Brighton has been on the waiting list for seven years and has given up all hope of ever being offered social housing. Fortunately for him, he has enough savings to remain in private rentals but the un-sureties of being turfed out because the landlord wants to sell makes his lifestyle uncertain and not being allowed to equip his rented lodgings with disability aids, compromises what he can and can't do.
