Westmorland and Furness is the full unitary-authority area covering the former Barrow-in-Furness, Eden and South Lakeland districts. In January–March 2026, 304 households across the area were assessed as owed a statutory homelessness prevention or relief duty; council evidence verifies at least four named hostel or short-term supported-accommodation services, but no authoritative complete all-age count was found. It’s part of the local context for the vetted concierges, support workers, security guards and agency staff we place across the area.
