Your daughter isn’t technically homeless if she’s living with you. You need to give her written notice to leave by a specific date and she needs to show that to the council’s housing department. Going to the press isn’t going to endear her to the authorities.

Is there a reason that she cannot stay at your house while you are away? With care or support from social services.

Most authorities will not offer to house if someone is living with a family member and there is room to do so.

Hello, I have a daughter, mid-thirties, who has some learning difficulties, asthma, epilepsy and a kidney condition which will need surgical intervention at some point.

She was in sheltered accommodation but had to leave in the summer mainly because her ghastly partner would not stop living there also. There were some rent arrears but I had arranged to cover this. During the summer she was living in a tent. She has since been here or with friends. Next month I am leaving GB and shall not be back until mid-February.

The local authorities are being of no help whatsoever and she is unable to be accepted by the YMCA unless she is put forward by them. There is much more to this story b ut not fair to her to have it on social media for all to see.

Do I really have to resort to contacting the Daily Mail or the like in order to make authorities take responsibility for giving her somewhere to live?
