Being evicted / daughter under camhs

[oldschooloon]

So we have 5 weeks left in our house . Council actually suggested renting a static caravan . I've lived in one before , right now I'd be over the moon to even be offered one . Dd2 has major social anxiety and after a year of wrangling Sen witch at high school we deregistered ... Then got evicted .
Keep applying for houses alongside every other family in our area in the same situation .

Not looking for answers , I'm just very very tired , don't feel I have broad enough shoulders .

A caravan in August, did they really?

You need to keep bidding and keep phoning

Why are you bing made homeless, have you contacted the homeless charities?

Are you intentionally homeless?

I think it's quite common for councils to not do anything much until you have actually been evicted. Then you are probably looking at temporary accommodation for a while, but it seems to be quite normal to need the eviction paperwork in your hand before anything is done. There are just too few houses/flats and too many people needing them.
Would it help to get a letter from the CAHMS team about your daughter's problems and how housing is vital to her wellbeing?

My landlords need the house back for a divorcing son , we have dogs as well which is clearly a problem for a lot of tenancies , we have a " severe housing shortage " in my county , all of the houses I have viewed have done it ' open day ' style as there's too many searching for slot bookings . It's complicated and depressing .
Good idea on the camhs letter , I'd applied for a national trust cottage and got turned down , but " encouraged " to apply for the next one ... It's a clock that's ticking louder every day ...

Could shelter maybe give you advice with re to your daughter being vulnerable?

I hope you get a home soon.

What family support do you have? If none and your dd is not in school you have the freedom to move anywhere in the country that can house you

I would be very wary of going in a caravan..I have heard they are very cold in winter..At the moment you are not making yourself intentionally homeless so council have to help..If it is too cold in caravan you will be making yourself intentionally homeless.

The advice is all based on emergency bed and breakfast accommodation , I've bought a caravan and can pitch in a friends garden and share facilities for a spell so I don't lose my dogs ... It's not great , but it's better than many have .. Horrible time , thanks all X

Very little support , my family are too busy judging my decisions generally , they are both independently wealthy but as I don't live how they think I should live apparently I deserve my current situation ... I can't move out of the area as our whole life is here . It's complicated ...

Can you keep the dogs in the caravan over night and visit in the daytime - so you have emergence bed and breakfast but have daytime shelter?

Would be short term I imagine
