We support councils and local authorities requiring accommodation for residents in Manchester and the wider Greater Manchester area affected by duty of care.
Duty of Care in Manchester
Councils have duty-of-care responsibilities to ensure displaced residents are safely housed, requiring accommodation sourcing for vulnerable individuals and families.
Greater Manchester's diverse housing stock, from Victorian terraces to modern apartment blocks, means a wide range of incidents require temporary accommodation. The region has also seen significant investment in high-rise residential buildings in recent years.
Temporary Accommodation During Duty of Care
Local authorities have legal responsibilities to ensure certain categories of displaced residents are provided with accommodation. This includes families with children, pregnant women, vulnerable adults and others who cannot secure their own housing.
Key Challenges
Duty-of-care placements must meet specific standards and be suitable for the household. Sourcing appropriate accommodation, particularly for families and those with accessibility needs, can be challenging in high-demand areas.
