Help towards renting a house

nickthewick

My mam is currently on employment support allowance. She is looking for a house to rent but doesn't have money towards a bond. Could she get any kind of help towards paying this?

Some local authorities have a bond guarantee scheme - have a look on your LA's website, or give them a call?

MOVING THREADS FOR BETTER RESPONSES


Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].
