Housing moves
If you are a tenant in social housing in London and want to move to a different Borough to where you currently live you may be eligible for Housing Moves..
Housing options
Waiting times for social housing in Central London are extremely long and it is likely to be a number of years before people in housing need are rehoused.
Unfortunately Social Housing is not available to everyone. This is mainly due to the low supply and very high demand of social housing in all London Boroughs. There is no short cut to social housing, which means you need to make informed choices about your current accommodation.
