Move to Work scheme

The Move to Work scheme helps social housing tenants move closer to their workplace

It means you can join the Housing Needs Register without proving a local connection.

You will be eligible for the scheme if you need to:

  • move closer to your place of work outside of Harlow
  • move to a different part of Harlow because transport links make it difficult for you to get to work
  • move to a different part of Harlow because you cannot travel to work, due to exceptional circumstances
  • move because you’ve had a new offer of work somewhere else that is difficult for you to travel to

If you are eligible for the scheme, we will:

  • give advice on your options for moving
  • help you complete the paperwork to register for a move

If you'd like to apply for the scheme, contact our Housing Options team.
