Advice on a wide range of options to improve your housing situation

Our Housing Service is designed to help you live in the home of your choice, as independently as possible. Our Housing Coordinators are trained to help you understand your rights, and advise you of practical solutions to any problems you may be experiencing.

Whether you own or rent your home, are living with someone else, are homeless, or at risk from losing your home, we can help.

We also work with housing providers and other professionals to help them understand the impact of sight loss and the additional barriers to independence it creates.

We can help you:

• Find a more suitable home if; your present housing no longer meets your needs, you are homeless, or you are at risk of losing your home

• Resolve landlord, tenancy or housing finance problems and access specialist debt advice

• Find ways to improve your situation if you are struggling with certain facilities in your home, such as adaptations with stairs, the bathroom or kitchen

• Get practical assistance with daily living tasks to help you to improve your independence and remain in your present home

• Resolve antisocial behaviour or neighbour nuisance problems

• Improve housing conditions such as disrepair, poor heating and energy efficiency, security and safety concerns

Action understands that everyone’s needs are different; that’s why our services are tailored for you as an individual.
