Homelessness advice
We cannot house most people once they become homeless. Our priority is to help you avoid becoming homeless in the first place. We can do this by negotiating with the people you live with or your landlord or giving you advice so that you can find somewhere else to live.
There are links to websites below where you can find advice and assistance which may help you either remain in your current accommodation or find somewhere else to live.
If you are still worried about becoming homeless or you are homeless already please get in touch with the Housing Aid Team as soon as possible.
Contact us by phone on 020 7527 2000 or by email at advice.housing@islington.gov.uk
