Areas of choice

Choosing where you want to live

When you apply for housing you may choose as many or as few  areas where you would like to live. We call these your “areas of choice”.

Your areas of choice 

Some areas are very popular and you may face a very long wait before we offer you a home.  If you change your area of choice it may increase your chances of getting an offer. 

When you choose your Area of Choice, we will consider you for social housing in that area that meets your needs.

You can choose a Landlord that you would prefer. But this may reduce the chances of you being offered a home.

You can change your areas of choice at any time. You can do this by contacting us:

• by phone on 03448 920 900 or
• by writing to us.
