Watford Borough Council's Housing Advice and Homelessness Service
The council offers an in-depth service which is about:
- preventing most people who are threatened with homeless from becoming homeless at all
- helping people who are actually homeless find a new place to live in as soon as possible
- helping people help themselves to resolve their housing situation
We can offer you support and advice if you are:
- Having difficulty with your landlord
- Being evicted by parents, family or friends
- Are experiencing domestic abuse
- Are an older person looking for a suitable home
- Having trouble paying your mortgage
We can also offer support if you are:
- In temporary accommodation provided by Watford Borough Council
- Are a housing association tenant looking to move
The council works with partner organisations in Watford to help deliver its homelessness service.
The council follows duties it has under Homelessness Reduction Act 2017 which came into force from 3 April 2018.
