Help to stay in your home

If something has changed in your life and your current home no longer meets your needs, there are services that can help you stay where you are. We can offer advice, practical support and, in some cases, financial help. The earlier you get in touch, the more options you may have.

Benefits advice

If money worries are making it difficult to stay in your home, you may be entitled to benefits or financial support.

Our advisers can check what you can claim, help you apply and make sure you are receiving the right income. See more information on benefits.

Mediation service

If you are experiencing conflict with neighbours or people you live with, our free and confidential mediation service may help.

Mediators bring people together to talk through issues and agree on a way forward so you can continue living safely and comfortably in your home. Find out more about our Mediation service.

HomeImprove service

If your home needs repairs, improvements or adaptations to make it safe or suitable, our HomeImprove service may be able to help.

Support includes advice, practical help and, in some cases, financial assistance through the Scheme of Assistance. This can help you:

• repair or maintain your home
• adapt your home if you are disabled or have mobility needs
• deal with issues that make your home unsuitable
