Homelessness
Contact us
Your Housing Options Service provides housing advice and assistance to anyone affected by homelessness.
If you are homeless or threatened with homelessness because of a valid legal notice, rough sleeping, fleeing domestic violence or experiencing a relationship breakdown please contact the Housing Options Service so we can carry out an assessment of your needs.

- 0300 123 6633 (freephone) - Monday to Thursday 9am to 5pm, and Friday 9am to 4.30pm

Or:

Housing Options Officers provide an initial telephone triage service providing advice, guidance and support.
You will be offered an appointment if you have been assessed as being in immediate need or in need of intensive support.
