Once granted refugee status, refugees are given 28 days to leave their Home Office provided accommodation and find somewhere to live. This is often a very stressful period, where refugees have to quickly understand the UK housing market. Our Housing and Landlord Caseworker  supports newly granted refugees to find new accommodation and  prevent homelessness.

Our Caseworker plays a vital role in supporting refugees to find safe and suitable housing as they navigate the challenges of displacement and resettlement. Our Caseworker work closely with local authorities, private landlords, social service agencies, and community organisations to ensure that refugees have access to adequate housing that meets their needs.

Clients are referred to their local authority after completing the comprehensive assessment of their housing needs. This assessment considers the family size and any potential vulnerabilities, such as health issues and disabilities. These assessments help determine the type of support required. Once housing is secured, our caseworker will provide ongoing support to refugees in managing their tenancy, explaining their rights and responsibilities, and addressing any issues or conflicts that may arise with the landlords.
