If you are leaving the armed forces, or you are a former member, worried about your housing, we may be able to help you find accommodation.
You will be able to join the Harlow Housing Needs Register if you are a:
- current or former members of the Armed Forces
- bereaved spouse or civil partner of a member of the Armed Forced
You will not need to prove a local connection to Harlow to be able to join the register, but if you can, you will be given higher priority.
You can read our council housing page for more information on how to join the register.
If you're at risk of homelessness or rough sleeping, we can give you advice on:
- how to contact the Royal British Legion who might be able to help with a rent deposit
- how to contact Veterans' Gateway which has a specialist housing service with over 4,000 houses for veterans
- how to contact Soldiers, Sailors Airmen and Families Association (SSAFA) who provide housing advice to current and former members
- Veterans Aid
You can look at Shelter for information about your options and charities you can contact.
