Can I live with my Mum???????

Is there any reason why you can't keep your house, but still spend most of your time at your mum's as a guest/carer? That way you are there for her, without compromising your own home and security. Doing it this way would mean that you each continue to be responsible for your own home, and you would not be taking on additional financial responsibility.

There is nothing stopping you moving in with your mother but she'll lose housing benefit and you'll be responsible for most of the rent. You can also ask about putting the property in a joint tenancy, with my LA you had to live in the property for a year before you could apply for this (the law may have changed on this not sure).
The only way to find out is speak to your local housing office manager and ask their policy.

Do explore all avenues, and, talk to your local Social Services Adult Care Team about your mothers care package (if she has one) if not ask them to do an assessment of need also a carers assessment. It might be possible to have carers going in more regularly taking some of the burden off you as her primary carer.

Good luck
