Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council is urging residents at risk of losing their home, to get in touch with the Housing Advice and Information Team, following the ending of the Government’s eviction ban.
The emergency measures that came into effect last year to protect those hit financially by the Covid-19 pandemic have now ended and landlords are able to serve eviction notices again.
Eviction notice periods which were extended to six months as an emergency measure during the pandemic have been set at four months from 1 June.
Should lockdown restrictions ease as planned, notice periods will return to how they were before the pandemic from 1 October, which is usually two months.
Anyone who is at risk of homelessness is encouraged to get in touch with the Housing Advice and Information team on 01287 612444.
