Resources
Housing Services can provide many options to assist you with your housing problems but there are also many specialist organisations who provide expert advice and assistance in particular areas. It is often worth-while contacting such bodies for further help. If you are not sure which one might be the most appropriate then contact housing services to discuss your situation. In some cases we may be able to arrange a referral for you to that organisation.
