both cables are still their mate. as you look at them from the rear seats the left one is tight when the handbrake is engaged the right one is loose but they are both their with the metal things still attached to the end of the cables that grip the handbrake

Have you had your head under the back wheel to check that the cable is still attached to the lever on the caliper. Might be a break in the middle of the cable.
Stick a couple of bricks in your boot so you can chock the wheels if you park on an incline. Ask whoever is doing your pads to order a handbrake cable too and fit that ASAP.
