Housing
If you're homeless or at risk of losing your home, we can help you
We help people who need support with housing.
Some are homeless, others need advice to prevent them from losing their homes.
If you or someone you know needs homelessness support, please fill out this short online form and we'll be in contact as soon as possible.
We also run homelessness drops-ins across Kent where you can speak to a member of staff in person.
If you're concerned about someone who is sleeping rough, use StreetLink to tell the nearest homelessness team (whether it's Porchlight or another organisation).
We can help if you are rough sleeping We work across Kent. We can help you if you are rough sleeping, staying in a shelter, refuge, B&B, squat or hostel. We can also help if you are sofa surfing or living with friends or family because you have nowhere else to go.
We have supported housing across Kent which provides safe and secure accommodation. We also work with private landlords who have suitable property to let.
If you are housed in private accommodation, we can offer ongoing support to make sure that your tenancy runs smoothly.
Support for women We understand that women experiencing homelessness, or whose homes are at risk, often face a range of pressures. The referral line team can talk with you about your options.
