Apply for Housing Benefit
Before you apply
If you or your partner is of working age and you are seeking assistance with your rent, please first check if you should apply for Universal Credit.
We prefer you apply online. This speeds things up, saves public money and frees up time so we can support those who are unable to apply online.
