Hello. My handbrake does not seem to release 100% and I hear a noise from the rear brakes as I drive off. It lasts for a minute or so then goes away. Sometimes though I hear a faint squeek like a bird twitter in the distance as I drive, if I slightly apply the handbrake for a second it goes away. Brakes have been cleaned and checked but problem is still there. Also noticed the hanbrake shoes look very low from this constant wear.

first, replace the shoes, then have all the cables checked as that is the reason they wont release
