What are my options?
Lodging
If you are staying with friends or more distant relatives, you may be able to claim help with accommodations costs.
Our Housing Options service will be able to tell you more about living as a boarder or lodger and what costs you may be able to claim.
Room Renting
Many young people chose to share accommodation to split costs. You can search online for rooms to rent or shared houses.
For information on a full range of housing options, including advice if you have nowhere to stay, visit our housing options section.
If you are not able to access the internet, phone us on 0121 303 7410.
Youth Hub
If you are 16 to 25 years old and not pregnant or with children then it is likely you will be referred to the Youth Hub.
This is a partnership between:
- St Basil’s, a charity specialising in housing for young people
- the Housing Options Service
- Children’s Services
