Council offers safety to those at risk over Christmas
Published: 06/12/2021
COPELAND Council can offer safety for those suffering homelessness or domestic abuse this Christmas.
The specialist team there wants people to come forward as early as possible to access support if they might be at risk.
In the last year, the Housing team helped 195 people, at risk of becoming homeless, to find new accommodation, or supported them to stay in their own home.
Another 122 people, already homeless when they approached the council, were found temporary accommodation until permanent homes could be found.
