Social housing

Registered Social Landlords (RSL) provides affordable homes for people in housing need. Most are not for profit and they vary in size from fewer than 10 homes to more than 50,000. Most of these homes are rented at affordable rates but some are sold through low cost home ownership schemes.

Some RSLs offer support for people with a range of needs including -

  • older people
  • people with disabilities and learning disabilities
  • people who have been homeless

Many housing associations hold their own housing lists and you should contact them for advice about registering. We also nominate customers from our housing list to some housing association properties.

Housing associations

There are homes to rent from housing associations (registered providers). You can find out more about these housing associations and how to get on their housing register.

You can approach individual housing associations directly and apply to join their waiting list.

Some housing associations advertise through the council’s choice based letting scheme and HomeSearch will provide nominations to housing associations for some available properties. If you register with HomeSearch you will be able to bid for available hosing association properties advertised through the scheme.

Floating support

'Floating support' is a community-based support service which helps people with a range of needs to help manage their tenancy and prevent homelessness. If you would like more information about this please fill in our online form or call us

We can refer customers into appropriate services based on assessed needs. An assessment of need will be based on the information provided by you, and/or other professionals working with you, and will help to identify what options may be most suitable.
