Are you worried about the cost of moving, or generally struggling to make ends meet?
The cost of utilities, rent and other essentials continue to increase, which means more and more people are struggling to make ends meet. If you're concerned about your finances, please read our suggestions for useful sources of help and support.
Coronavirus
Given the current Coronavirus outbreak in the UK, and the potential impact on the workforce, we wanted to make you aware that Applications may take longer to process than usual. For more details, please look at the website of the provider who looks after your application.
You can help reduce delays by managing your account online, in particular by up-loading documents straight on to your application when you apply. Please note that offices may be closed to the public to help prevent the spread of the virus, meaning you won’t be able to hand in documents in person. If you send them by post, there is likely to be a delay putting them on the system.
If you have questions or queries about the Home-Link service, please read through the Frequently Asked Questions section. If you still need assistance, you can contact the relevant Council by telephone or email, using the details shown on the 'Contact' page.
Thank you for your patience at this time.
