Housing and Homelessness

It is important to understand your housing situation and your rights, whether you rent or support someone who does.

Housing issues can feel stressful, especially when you are unsure where to turn or what to do next.

As a carer, you may already manage many responsibilities, so housing concerns can quickly feel overwhelming.
However, having clear and simple information can help you feel more confident and prepared.

We understand that every situation is different, and housing needs can change over time.
Because of this, we have brought together key information to support you at every stage.
This includes understanding your rights, preventing homelessness, and knowing what action to take early.

In each section, you will find practical guidance that you can follow at your own pace.

You will also find clear explanations about eviction notices, housing options, and available support.
These sections aim to help you take the next step, even if you feel unsure right now.

We have included information about local support from councils and community organisations.
You can use these resources to find advice, speak to someone, or get help in a crisis.
We also highlight information that may be helpful to share with landlords where needed.

Furthermore, we explain common myths about housing, so you can better understand what support is available.

This can help you avoid confusion and make informed decisions for yourself or someone you support.

Whether you are worried about losing your home or planning ahead, this information is here to guide you.
You can explore each section when it suits you and return whenever you need support or reassurance.

Please click on the sections below to explore each topic in more detail.

Each section has been created to offer support, clarity, and calm guidance when you need it most. You are not alone, and there is always information available to help you through every stage of your caring journey.
