People with children

Information and advice for people with children who are having to deal with homelessness or housing problems such as bad conditions or living in overcrowded accommodation, or coping with money worries.

Expecting a baby?

Find out about your housing rights when pregnant.

Family connections if you are homeless

You might be able to get re-housed near family if you are homeless, but you will need to show you have a local connection.

Antisocial behaviour

Don't get evicted or risk having your tenancy demoted for your child's antisocial behaviour. Could a family intervention tenancy give you a second chance?

Domestic violence and abuse

Emergency housing options, financial issues and how to stay safe when leaving domestic violence.

Intentionally homeless

If the council's homelessness department says you are intentionally homeless, you may get help from social services instead.

If you need to move

If you rent from a council or housing association, find out if you could get a transfer or exchange.
