Homelessness Review

Homelessness Review

 

You are able to ask your council to review a decision they have made regarding your homelessness accommodation. Decisions that can be appealed include;

  • One stating you are not in priority need for example
  • One that refers you to a different council due to a lack of local links
  • One that offers you unsuitable housing

 

In order to get the council to review a decision you must request the review within 21 days of receiving the initial decision. The council will only consider late requests if you can prove there was a good reason for the delay. This is normally done by sending a letter to your council.

 

The council will expect further information such as proof that supports your belief that you qualify for homelessness assistance or proof of circumstances the council did not initially take into account.
