Further decisions

We'll help even if we can’t prevent or relieve homelessness.

If we can’t prevent or relieve your homelessness, we’ll assess whether we have a longer-term duty to help you. This depends on things like:

  • whether you’re in ‘priority need’
  • if you became homeless intentionally
  • if you have a local connection

We’ll explain our decision in writing and let you know how to ask for a review if you don’t agree.
