Applying for a Council home
Before you are able to be offered a Council house you need to be on our Housing Register.
To be entered on the register you need to fill in a
Housing Application Form which is available from any of our Contact Centres.
The booklet
Housing Application Guide gives information on completing the application form. However, if you need further assistance in completing the form, or answering any of the questions, this is available at any of our Contact Centres.
Once your application has been received points will be awarded determined by housing need but priority will be given to persons occupying unsatisfactory or temporary housing, or are vulnerable for other social, economic or medical reasons.
For further details please see our
Choice Based Information leaflet or the full
Housing Allocation Policy .
