Mum who gave birth to eighth child a month ago 'scared' for children as family face being evicted

A mum who is still in 'absolute agony' after delivering her newborn baby a month ago says she is 'scared' for her children as her family face being evicted from their rented home.

Jodie Hand and Carl Ellis, 45, have lived at the house in Tuebrook, Liverpool for the last two years with their children Carl, 19, Joseph, 15, Finley, 12, Leighton, 11, Matilda, five, Minnie, three, and Bonnie, two. The couple welcomed their eighth child, baby Leonard, four weeks ago.

The family have been sent a possession order, seen by the ECHO, from a district judge ordering them to leave the property, which is owned by a private landlord, by Friday (March 17). The family first received a notice last April asking them to leave their home by June 28.
