Does the company/charity that runs your hostel have any "move on" advisors?
Otherwise, look for local housing charities like YMCA. Not necessarily because they will house you but they will be able to guide you through the maze of options.
Also, some Housing Associations or Social Landlords as they are now called have schemes to help people in your situation with deposits etc or sometimes with halfway house accommodation or even education and training.
Good luck ____________________ Whether you think you can, or think you can't, you're probably right |

Dare I say it, and I like most of us would only do it as a last resort.
How much is your bike worth? Do you REALLY need it? Even if it's £1k, it will help grease the wheels with HMO landlords. If you can offer a 6 or 8 weeks rent up front they'll be more likely tempted.
I do hope you manage to sort your situation. Seems if you're single you're expected to fend for yourself... ____________________ Like a Yorkie - I'm not for the girls |

not sure that is legally the case though probably what they told you, do you have a tenancy agreement, a residents agreement, are you a licensee?
You probably can work, but they won't drop the rent which is probably eyewateringy high on top of the service charge, making it almost impossible to earn, pay rent, pay service charge, buy food etc

Might not be. I think the Shelter helpline would be a better starting place,
https://england.shelter.org.uk/get_advice/how_we_can_help/housing_advice_helpline
0808 800 4444
It's open 365 days of the year from 8am – 8pm on weekdays and 8am – 5pm on weekends.
Our housing experts will advise you, no matter what your housing situation. Our helpline does get busy, but keep trying if you can't get through.
Calls are free from UK landlines and all major UK mobile operators.
Our webchat service is usually open 9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday.
You can also talk to a face-to-face advisor in one of our Shelter advice centres – service opening hours vary. |
