    I would presume that the council would just supply the property and the tenant provides their own furniture

    there are a few community charities in my area that take away unwanted furniture,bedding, crockery etc to help those in need of assistance to furnish their properties

    Im afraid all household items and furniture is the tennants responsibility to provide.

    As mentioned - Try Freecycle.

    Those things in life that we find the hardest to do, are the things we are the most thankful we did.
