Southwark Council - Homelessness Reduction Act Referral Form (Duty to Refer form)

Introduction

Please note: It is important for the household to consider whether they will be deemed by Southwark Council to have a local connection. In order to have a local connection to the London Borough of Southwark they must have resided in the borough for 6 out of the last 12 months or 3 out of the last 5 years. If you think you do not have a local connection, you may approach any local authority you think you do have a connection with.

Please see the guide to the duty to refer for further advice on the duty and local connection.

You can email dutytorefer@southwark.gov.uk if you have any further enquiries before submitting the form.

For service users who are homeless on the day, requests for assistance should be raised by calling our Gateway Team on 0207 525 4140 and selecting option 1.
