Request help and support
The Council can:
- Agree an plan with you that describes what you have to do and what the Council has to do to assist you. This is called a Personalised Housing Plan or PHP.
- Give you a list of places you can contact. The Council has a limited number of places in hostels. Some of the places you may be offered will be outside the local area.
If you have read the information on the first page and are homeless or threatened with homelessness, you can fill out the form at the bottom of this page to request help and support from the Council. You will be asked to give:
- your contact details
- your date of birth
- your National Insurance number
- your employment status
- details of all the benefits you receive
- your immigration status
- the reasons why you are threatened with homelessness
- when you think you might be made homeless
- anyone else in your household who is in your situation
You will also be asked to give the Council permission to share your details with other agencies. This is to help the Council provide the best help and advice it can. These other agencies might include:
- the police or other law enforcement agency
- the Home Office
- your doctor
- social services
- mental health services
- a credit checking agency
