Housing Benefit
This benefit can help you pay your rent, whether you pay it to a private landlord or landlady, to a company (including Housing Associations) or to Shropshire Council. Housing Benefit does not help with the cost of buying your home, for example, mortgage payments, or with day-to-day living expenses such as gas and electricity bills.
