Housing Service 

​

In an average year, the Irish Elderly Advice Network rehouses over 100 older people.

 

For a variety of reasons, many older people find themselves without a decent home. Our Housing Service can help to find secure, safe, lifelong homes for older people (55 and over). We work with Housing Associations across London to rehouse older people who are do not have a decent home. We rehouse people from homelessness, sofa-surfing, bedsits in run down houses/HMOs and other unsuitable housing.

 

Please contact us for support or advice. 

​

Our Housing Service is located at the Irish Elders and Friends Centre, St Thomas More Hall, 9 Henry Road, London, N4 2LH. Click here for a map.

  • We will support you with the application process, and will assist with applying for financial assistance with rent and council tax if this is needed
