Worried about becoming homeless

You do not have to be sleeping on the streets or not have a roof over your head to be considered homeless. Most people who are legally homeless are not on the streets.

We understand that the risk of becoming homeless can be a very worrying and stressful time.

You may be threatened with homelessness because of the following:

• private tenancy ending
• parents or relatives have asked you to leave
• rent or mortgage arrears
• relationship breakdown
