Homelessness help for domestic abuse victims
We will:
- assess your current situation
- consider what you have done so far (for example, contacting the police)
- discuss other ways to help you (for example, organisations that find victims of domestic violence somewhere safe to live)
- check you are eligible for homelessness help due to domestic abuse
If you are eligible for our help, we will do a homelessness assessment for you. We could offer you emergency accommodation until we complete this assessment.
Information about how we could support victims of domestic abuse is in our Domestic Abuse and Housing Policy (PDF, 2367.75 KB).
