Hi Anna,
Regarding my doppleme ID number I will have to look for it as I cannot recall getting one and making a doppleme either.
Also about my query and questions I was saying that I am working full time and found out I am pregnant I rent a room in a flatshare with one other, I am not with the father and will have to bring up the baby alone.
I really don't know where to start as I need to find a flat for the baby and I. I would prefer to go for private housing and I heard that I could find a list of landlord who accept HB from the CAB. I am wondering what help I can claim and if what I would be entitle to but the problem is I don't how and who to go to first for all this things.
I am worry and so stressed because time is running and I am already 4 month pregnant. The worse of all I might have to move out from where I live by the end of November!
Can you please advise and tell where I should start ?
Best

Hi,I have to young kids age between 4-6,I been living in this studio flat for the past 4years as its really hard for me as a single mum to afford a new place.And im on housing list.
So new council homes are been build just next door to my flat,i would like to know how can i get priority in those flats?
And if i want to rent another house on the private sector where can i get help with all the costs?!
Many thanks

Hi Lili and welcome to One Space Anyone on the housing list gets allocated points on the basis of need and those with the most "points" get priority.
With aprivate rent, the problem is often the bond, and some areas have Bond Guarantee Schemes, but sadly not many,
Please email our Housing Expert for specialist help
Making similar enquiries and was told the the local Credit Union may be able to provide a loan for a deposit.
Credit Unions are fab and I think anyone on a low income should consider joining one as they can be a great support in terms of loans and small savings schemes. See here for details
Hello Sab
I think the confusion has arisen because in the thread you were on before, you said you had the same problem as Hazeleyes (and she had said she had problems adding an avatar)
In fact you are really looking for some help about benefits and money so that you can sort out your housing. If you click here you will be able to fill in a form that goes straight to our expert from the Citizen's Advice Bureau ! You would normally get a response within seven days.
