Moving out of your temporary accommodation over Christmas?

You will be charged the full rent until the keys for your accommodation are returned. If you live in a property where the repairs are managed by an agent, please contact the agent directly to hand in your keys and to obtain a receipt. Please do not leave keys in the property.

For all other properties, the housing options service at the Town Hall, 160 Whitechapel road, London E1 1BJ, will re-open on Thursday 2 of January 2025. You need to return your keys to the office before midday to avoid charges.

Please remember to notify your housing officer, housing benefit and Council Tax.

Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Strategy 2018 - 2023

We work hard to prevent homelessness and we can do this far more effectively if we have the opportunity to help sooner rather than later.

Find out about our homelessness strategy.

Performance reports

In order to ensure our clients, partners, staff and the wider community are aware of how we are performing, we compile an annual report that provides an overview of our performance and how we are delivering our service.

Please let us know if you found the information useful, or if there are any elements of our work you would like to see reported on.

Contact the Information change management team on 020 7364 5000 or email HOinformationchangemanagement@towerhamlets.gov.uk.
