Changing to a joint tenancy with mum

Hi,

This is a bit complicated so I’ll try to keep it brief. Ibe been a carer for my mum for the last 10 years. During that time , we lived separately and made it work.
Last week, my mum was taken into hospital after a fall, and she has a sacral insufficiency fracture along with sepsis. This more than likely means her needs will have changed quite drastically when she is discharged.

Now to top that off, I have rented my home from a private landlord for the last 12 years, and on Wednesday he told me he was selling up. Obviously with the rental market the way it is now, theres no way I can afford anything as a carer.

My mums property is with a housing association (the same house I grew up in) which shes lived in for 40 years.

Perhaps the sale of my home has come at the right time as it means I can move back in with mum and help her with whatever her new normal is.

My question is though, has anyone ever been in a similar situation and been able to add themselves as a joint tenant?

I haven’t told Mum about my housing situation yet as I’m trying to come up with a solution first. I am planning on speaking to the CAB when they open up again after Easter, but I was just hoping for any advice as I’m worried sick about the whole situation right now.

Sorry it’s so long and thanks for reading
