A man who faced homelessness after his life became "traumatic" has hailed a new scheme as a "life-saver".
In an effort to reduce homelessness in the borough, a landlord has teamed up with Knowsley council to provide support to people as young as 16 to help keep their homes. The scheme specifically supports people battling problems such as mental health issues or addiction and who have a history of homelessness.
The council has awarded ForHousing a contract to deliver vital short term housing related support for people living in their own accommodation that may need help to sustain their tenancy and live independently, regardless of the type of tenancy they have. ForHousing’s Tenants Extra Support Service is called TESS for short.
