Family of five on Universal Credit face eviction over unpaid rent

Amy Winter, Joshua Thain, and their three children in Thurnscoe face eviction from their home due to unpaid rent, despite Amy and Joshua being on Universal Credit.

They’ve sought help from Barnsley Council, but no assistance has been provided. The family, including Amy, who is five months pregnant, says they are in a dire situation and are worried about their future. Their property is owned by Sanctuary Housing and was under Joshua’s late mother’s name, Victoria Robertshaw, who passed away from Covid-19. The impending eviction has left them desperate and searching for help, particularly from the council.
