Noisy neighbours making me miserable

So long story short, brought our terraced house two years ago put our ALL into renovating it and it feels so much like home. We have a two year old and the house next to us (backs onto my sons room) was empty up until June this year. A dad and daughter moved in from a homeless shelter (it’s a council house), at first seemed fine bit kept to themselves but we soon noticed why!
the daughter is 11 and an absolute psycho!!! I hate to talk about someone so young like that but she is honestly feral, it’s horrific. She screams and shouts all day, she goes to school for an hour a day as they can’t accommodate her behaviour. It is making us miserable, she wakes my son up every.single.night shouting and banging! The police got called not long ago as she had a knife to her dad telling him to kill her but it sounded like she was being murdered, as it does most days and nights with her screaming.
i am honestly close to a breakdown, I’ve tried talking to him. I’ve contacted the council in whom I work for but have been ignored by the residency team multiple times about it now! I am loosing my shit, I want to move because of it but then I think so the time and money we put into making this our house I shouldn’t have to!

Bump?? Anyone got any advice, It took me well over an hour to get my son to sleep because she was screaming at the dogs and the dogs were barking🫠

She's not feral, she's mentally unwell and possibly neurodiverse too if she's not got an appropriate place in education.
I realise this is a shit situation for you. I'm not underplaying it. But it's not all 11 year old girl's fault nor the fault of her probably extremely struggling father.
Call social services and make it clear they're clearly not coping.
Realistically they aren't going to be moving - and that poor girl almost certainly needs stability to be supported. So you may decide to sell your house, if you really find it too much. There aren't any other options I'm afraid.

I can understand I sound probably awful calling her feral, but it really is the only way to describe her. Any family or friends that come over are honestly shocked at her, it’s not normal child like behaviour she will kick the dogs around the garden screaming at them and honestly it’s just horrific to listen to.
I get that the reality is they won’t get rehoused but I just find it so poor that there is no support and he also seems just helpless in getting her any support, I have asked him and he just shrugs and basically says he just lives with it, fine for him but she is waking my son up at all hours because she’s throwing her play station remote against his bedroom wall and screaming.
I really don’t want to move house, we put all our money and effort into this house. It is making me miserable though, when I have knocked to speak to him she stands and growls and hisses at me.
