Housing support

You have the right to live in safety and to feel secure in your own home.

If you rent your home from a Registered Social Landlord, you may wish to contact them for advice as they can often provide support regarding your housing options.

You also have a right to information and advice about your housing options and the support that's available to stop you from becoming homeless. Our Homelessness Services team can:

  • give advice about your housing options and rights
  • provide you with safe secure temporary accommodation
  • help you to secure alternative permanent accommodation
  • refer you to specialist support services
  • provide help and advice if you have decided that you want to leave.

To find out more, visit our Homelessness services pages. In an emergency out of office hours, call 01896 752111.
