Welcome to Wiltshire
The council has a Choice Based Lettings scheme, brand name Homes4Wiltshire, for people seeking accommodation because their present homes are unsuitable. Choice Based Lettings (CBL) schemes operate by means of ‘bids’ or expressions of interest in advertised homes from people in housing need. About 30 landlords providing affordable homes in the area including Wiltshire Council itself.
If you are homeless or threatened with homelessness, or cannot stay in your home because of violence or abuse, please call 0300 456 0106 or email homeless@wiltshire.gov.uk. For further information about the council's homelessness services, please see the council's website here.
Demand for social rented housing significantly outstrips supply. If you can potentially afford to buy a home, advice about low cost home ownership is available from Help to Buy South. To learn more about how the choice-based lettings works, please click About Homes4Wiltshire above. The council's Allocation Policy can be viewed here.
