<p>The number of children in temporary accommodation in the North West and Wirral
at the end of each financial year where figures are available from 2015 to 2019 are
provided here: <a href="https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fgovernment%2Fstatistical-data-sets%2Flive-tables-on-homelessness&data=02%7C01%7COralandTopicalPQs%40communities.gov.uk%7C51acb96dee6443865c4508d7a34fb797%7Cbf3468109c7d43dea87224a2ef3995a8%7C0%7C0%7C637157435079683433&sdata=4yx9n26YE1cpmJs%2FvuiuO1bERo97Fg7J04iDwNAHaUA%3D&reserved=0"

is collected at the local authority level and therefore not available at lower geographical

be calculated by summing figures for Liverpool, Halton, Knowsley, Sefton, St. Helens
and Wirral. In December 2019 we announced the allocation of £263 million in funding
for 2020/21 to local authorities designed to support them to deliver services to tackle
homelessness. The purpose of this funding is to give local authorities more control
and flexibility in managing homelessness pressures and supporting those who at risk
of homelessness, including providing them with temporary accommodation. <br> <br>England
and regional totals include imputations for missing values, including Halton, so the
sum of individual figures will not match these totals.</p>
