At risk of becoming homeless?
Our Housing Options service may be able to help you if you think you could lose your home within the next 56 days (eight weeks).
To get help from us, you must also qualify under immigration rules - this means that you must be:

- an EU citizen working in the UK or with the permanent right to live in the UK
- allowed to claim benefits in the UK if you are from outside the EU
We will work with you for up to eight weeks to you prevent you becoming homeless and a further eight weeks if you do lose your home.
