Wirral Homelessness Strategy
Wirral Council will be developing a new Homeless Strategy with partners in 2012. This will be informed and shaped by a comprehensive Review of Homelessness and Homeless Services which will be carried out by GLHS Ltd.
The review will involve the Council, key agencies who provide homeless services in Wirral and service users to make sure the strategy is reflective of local needs.
Can you help us review homelessness? Are you, or have you been at risk of becoming homeless? If so please complete this online survey.
If you represent a housing provider, service or agency dealing with homelessness, please complete this online survey.
You can view more information about the Homelessness Review elsewhere on this website.
