Any landlords from norwich on here?

I am trying to help out a friend who needs private rented accomodation in Norwich area.
She is disabled so unfortunatly the stigma of being on benefits is meaning that private landlords dont want to know, I think its such a shame that landlordds are not looking at her individual case and instead just think because she is on benfits she is not a good tenant.
She gets incapacity benefit, disability living allowance income support and local housing allowance. All benefits are in place and paid on a weekly babsis for some and monthly for others, these are long term benefits and she has another 3 years on her awards, so the rent is relaible and I can not understand why landlords will not even entertain taking her as a tenant.
So I was wondering if there are any landlords on here who have any properties available?
She has a deposit available as well as references. She is reliable for the rent.
A double room a bedsit and flat or flatlet anything really thats suitable for a single person is what she needs its got to be in norwich or very close to norwich.
No special adaptations or anything are needed and she can manage stairs etc...
If anyone can help please get in touch by either leaving a message on this thread or pm'ing me. Ive tried contacting loads of people on gumtree, local paper etc... but am having no luck.
