Help from outside of Homeless Friendly

Help from outside of Homeless Friendly

For many people experiencing homelessness, the first step in getting support is contacting your local council. We have provided the details of all authorities in the Greater Manchester area below. Please ensure that you provide formal ID if possible, evidence of any medication plus any information which may help to evidence that you are homeless.

Trafford

Housing Options Service Trafford (HOST) provides housing advice and assistance via telephone and email during normal operating hours

The reception at Sale Waterside is only open to those with appointments

To book a face to face appointment please contact 0161 912 2230  or email HOST@Trafford.gov.uk

If you require another service that we don't offer, please consult the list below. These are all independent organisations that we work closely with across each of the 10 localities in Greater Manchester. The below is far from an exhaustive list as we work with a lot of different groups - if you can't see the service you are looking for, please get in touch with us directly as we will likely know someone that can help you.
