Emergency Card

 

You need to move urgently because of illness, or to protect yourself from danger

 

We will need to see clear evidence of an 'urgent' medical assessment, disrepair inspection, or police recommendation
The Homefinder Project Group meets monthly to look at requests for Emergency Cards

 

If an immediate decision is needed, the Homefinder Lettings Co-ordinator will ask at least 2 members of the Group to approve the request
An Emergency Card will be awarded for a set time period. If you don't apply for a home during that time, your case will be looked at again

 

The Project Group may decide to allow you more time, or remove the Emergency Card and place you in the 'Gold' band of applicants
