Short Term Housing Support
If you are currently living in temporary accommodation, or require housing support in order to sustain your current tenancy then Short Term Housing Support may be able to provide you with additional help and support. We’re unable to provide this service to those with no fixed abode because eligibility requires a valid occupancy or tenancy agreement.
Tenancy support within your temporary accommodation can include help with:
- Maximising your income, managing your money and paying your bills
- Completing forms or making benefit claims
- Getting familiar with a new area
- Making referrals to other agencies for more specialised help
Apply for short term tenancy support.
