Homelessness
The Council's responsibilities for homeless people
Local authorities have a legal duty to help homeless people - firstly by interviewing them, and/or assessing their housing situation and secondly by offering them temporary or permanent accommodation - provided the circumstances warrant it, according to criteria laid down in Part II of the Housing (Scotland) Act 1987 amended by the Housing (Scotland) Act 2001.
In Clackmannanshire if you are presenting yourself as homeless, you will be interviewed by skilled and experienced staff from the Council's Homeless Team at Lime Tree House. Your interview will be private and confidential.
Who should I contact?
