Comment: | Shelter's Free Housing Advice Helpline is Britain's first free national housing helpline. Run by Shelter (see separate record), it provides advice to anyone with a housing problem. Wherever you are in Britain, their advisors will tell you your rights, explain your options and help you take action. If appropriate you may be asked to contact your local Shelter Housing Advice Centre. Housing related problems may include homelessness, or being threatened with losing your home, mortgage or rent arrears, having trouble getting repairs done, trying to get rehoused, experiencing harassment or violence within the home, unhappy about decisions on housing benefits or rehousing, or living in unsuitable housing. |
