Homelessness

If you know that you are likely to be without somewhere to live soon because:

  • you have been asked to leave by family or friends
  • are likely to be evicted by your landlord
  • are likely to lose your house because of mortgage arrears
  • any other reason

The Homeless Team will assess your case under the 1996 Housing Act and the Homelessness Act 2002. These government acts explain who will be provided with temporary/ emergency accommodation and who are to be given assistance in terms of advice and support.

You should contact the Council and request to speak to a Homelessness Officer to explain your case.  If necessary they will arrange an appointment for you.
