Wirral Healthy Homes Team

What does it do?

Wirral’s Healthy Homes team supports tenants and homeowners to help them stay independent, healthy and safe in their homes. They offer free advice and services relating to a range of health and housing issues.

Healthy Homes Advocates are calling at every property in selective licensing areas, to carry out a short questionnaire to see if you can benefit from any of the free services available.

Wirral Council’s Healthy Homes team all wear a uniform and carry identification. If you have any doubts email Wirral Council’s Housing Standards at selectivelicensing@wirral.gov.uk
