This covers the whole festive period and the additional bank holiday in Scotland.
Last date for evictions on discontinuations – 22nd December 2023
First day for evictions to recommence – 3rd January 2024.
These dates apply across the UK.
No service user should now get a letter with a support cessation date between 23rd December and 2nd January – if colleagues in homelessness services do see any cases like this, please can you ask them to direct the individual to the positivemoveon@migranthelpuk.org where a reinstatement can be requested.
