Losing and Finding a Home

Homeless services in Stoke-on-Trent

If you are looking for homeless services in Stoke-on-Trent  then this page should be able to help you (to find out more about services nationally take a look at Homeless UK). It lists a number of organisations that you can contact if you have become homeless, or concerned that you might become so. You will find a link to their website where one exists, or a link to the best description of the service that I could find, or simply a phone number where there is little web information available. 

Naturally, each agency listed here is responsible for maintaing the accuracy of their own website but if there is anything here that is incorrect please e-mail me at g.j.morris@salford.ac.uk and I will amend as appropriate. The same applies for any services that have not been included.

In the first instance, if you are homeless or threatened with homelessness you should contact Housing Advice Service (Stoke-on-Trent City Council) on 01782 233696. They also have an emergency out of hours number at 01782 234234 if you are homeless tonight and have no place to stay.
