About Your Application
There is a very high demand for social housing in the district
and you can only be considered for certain types of property
depending upon your circumstances and family size.
Certain information and evidence may be needed before your
housing application can be assessed. To allow us to do this quickly
please supply any information that has been asked for. We
will need to see original documents which you can take into any one
of our offices and they will photocopy them for you free of
charge.
- Child Benefit (book/bank statement/award letter)
- Disability Living Allowance (book/bank statement/award
letter)
- Pregnancy (midwife/doctor/hospital letter giving expected
delivery date)
- Private Tenant (tenancy agreement)
Once your application has been assessed you will get a letter of
confirmation which will also tell you your banding and registration
number.
If, when assessing your application, it is felt that you would
benefit from some housing advice, you will be contacted by letter,
by phone or by text message inviting you to get in touch with a
Housing Advisor.
