Housing options service
What we do
The primary aim of the service is to prevent homelessness. North Devon Council's Housing options service delivers:
- housing register: Devon Home Choice - to provide access to affordable housing throughout Devon
- housing options: to explore options available to prevent homelessness
- homelessness service: to assist when prevention has not been successful
We aim to ensure that advice and information is available to everyone in the North Devon district free of charge.
Improving services
The
council prepares strategies, which consider the current and long term housing needs and solutions within
the district, taking into account historical trends and performance information, as well as national
guidance.- Homelessness strategy 2008-2013 (pdf
