A vulnerable young woman left homeless with her baby daughter after Liverpool Council failings said she “just wanted somewhere to call home.”
Despite multiple attempts to secure support, the woman - who was pregnant with her second child - was repeatedly ignored by the local authority in her attempts to gain secure housing. As a result, Liverpool Council has been ordered to award thousands of pounds in compensation by the Local Government Ombudsman.
A letter of apology has also been sent to the woman, identified as Ms X, by the city council in April with an acceptance she had been put through “distress.”
