Administration and data management Our team in the Manchester City Council's Homelessness Assessment Service delivers advice and gives assistance to people who present as homeless. All advice and assistance is written up on the day and is then transferred to a case recording system back in the office. The large numbers of clients has generated a need for a dedicated team to prevent a backlog and ensure accurate recording.
