The Council no longer owns or manages any social housing in the Vale – this is now all owned and managed by several housing associations. However the Council does run the Housing Register and the Choice Based Lettings Scheme, whereby we nominate people on the Housing Register to housing associations when a suitable home becomes available.
If you want us to help you find somewhere to live you first need to apply to join the Housing Register – see the page below to find out how to do this. These pages also give information about how social housing is allocated through the Choice Based Lettings scheme, including how you can bid for a property and what to do if you are offered a property.
If you would like any more advice about how to apply for housing please contact the Housing Advice Team - for contact details see How to contact the Housing Advice Team.
