Change to application process for Home Options (October 2011)
From 7th November 2011 you will no longer be able to apply online for Home Options. From this date new applicants will need to approach their local authority individually to discuss their housing requirements.
The removal of the online application form is part of the wider changes that are affecting Home Options. In place of the online application process each council will be offering one-to-one telephone or face-to-face interviews in order to assess individuals and their housing need. This will help ensure that individuals are given the best advice possible about their particular housing needs.
Details of how to apply from the 7th November can be found on the How To Apply page.
