Social housing


Social housing is for households that have difficulties in finding accommodation. Examples include:

  • single parents
  • unemployed
  • pensioners
  • big or young families with dependent children
  • migrants, refugees, asylum seekers
  • disabled people

Social housing is allocated according to criteria set by the local authority. To find out if you are eligible for social housing and to gain a place on the housing list you will need to contact your District/Borough Council (for contact details, use the link to the ShropshirePortal website on this page).
