Are you rough sleeping? Or maybe sofa surfing? Perhaps you’re staying in a night shelter, B&B, hotel or hostel?

Are you stuck in unsafe housing, facing eviction, or struggling with your landlord? 

We are here to help you. 

Established in 1965, we offer community-based housing advice support and advocacy in Bristol.

We offer free, independent, and confidential support to anyone in and around Bristol with housing issues, big or small.

As well as providing telephone advice, we offer long-term casework over several months – sometimes even years.

We have built solid connections with other local agencies and often work with them to try and find the best possible solutions for our clients. 

Housing advice drop-in sessions

As well as our normal service, we are holding free drop-in housing advice sessions at venues around Bristol.

During these sessions, we will be providing advice to anyone struggling with housing, the cost-of-living crisis or rising energy costs.

Our impact 

From April 2021 to March 2022, nearly half of our clients came to us at homeless or threatened with homelessness. 

Of this group of people, we…

prevented homelessness for 46%;

helped improve housing conditions/rehousing prospects for 25%; 

and empowered 26% to take action themselves, or referred them onto another specialist agency.
