Hi Singlemumneedshelp.  If you go to social services they will help you. I was evicted from my house and I went to social services and they they rung my council and straightaway I was accommodated

[Fari]

I know many people are scared of approaching social services but in your situation they will help you because you didn’t do anything bad to your children

[Fari]

And your council will put you in Band A for emergency accommodation and if not available at that moment they will put you and your children in temporary accommodation whilst waiting for a house
