Homelessness

In an emergency – I’m homeless now

If you are homeless / sleeping rough at the moment, or if you are worried about someone else, contact us:

We can assess your needs and discuss the available support.

Homelessness means more than just 'sleeping rough'. It can mean that:

you don't have a home where you can live with your immediate family, or with any person who could reasonably be expected to live with you - for example, a full-time carer.
your home is temporary.
you don’t have permission to live where you are.
you have been locked out.
you can't live in your home because of violence or abuse.
you’re not able to stay in your home for any reason (for example, if the home is in a very poor condition).
you can't afford to stay where you are.
you live in a mobile home, caravan or boat and you have no place to put it.

You can also contact us for advice and support if you are likely to be homeless in the next 8 weeks (56 days).
