Am I homeless?
You are homeless if:
- you have no accommodation at all
- you have somewhere to stay, but you cannot gain entry to it (for example, your landlord has changed the locks)
- you have somewhere to stay, but you are being threatened with violence (for example, by neighbours, a former partner or family member)
- you have somewhere to stay, but it is not reasonable to stay there because of overcrowding and this overcrowding is bad for your health
- you have somewhere to stay, but its poor standard means it is not reasonable for you to stay there
- you have somewhere to stay, but you do not have permission to stay there
- you are living in either B&B accommodation, a hotel, hostel or refuge
- you’ve been staying with family or friends, but they have asked you to leave
- you usually live in a mobile home (for example a caravan or boat), but there is nowhere for you to put it
Further information on what to do if you find yourself homeless can be found in the information booklet below.
