This website provides information about resources and advice for people experiencing homelessness in Durham. Homelessness can be caused by many different reasons and circumstances and affects people of all ages, social backgrounds and education.
The development of this website came about as a result of meeting many homeless people in and around Durham and becoming aware of their plight and myriad problems. Hopefully, the collated information will help to put you in the driving seat to navigate your way to finding a home and building a better life.
If you wish to help promote this website there are some cards and a poster you may wish to print out and distribute. Just click on the following links:

During a period of severe weather, Durham County Council
has a Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) in place.
This protocol ensures that anyone at risk of rough sleeping,
regardless of their priority need under s189 of the Housing
Act 1996, and their entitlement to temporary accommodation,
will be offered temporary accommodation and ongoing advice
and support to secure a suitable accommodation option.
Should the predicted minimum night time temperature drop below one degrees Celsius for three consecutive nights or more, then the Durham County Council's Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) will be initiated. The Predicted Minimum Night Time Temperatures for Durham are the smaller figures below the day time predicted temperatures in the display above.
The authorative figures from the Met Office can be seen by cliking on the link below. The Predicted Minimum Night Time Temperatures for Durham are the smaller figures next to the day time predicted temperatures.
Should the criteria for a SWEP be met or be close to being met, then please go to the SWEP page for more information: SWEP Page
