If you're at risk of being homeless
How we support people at risk of being homeless. How to contact us and what happens next.
Request a review of a decision
If you disagree with the council’s decision, you can request a review within 21 days of the decision date. Read about the decisions we review.
If you submit your request after 21 days, you do not have an automatic right to a review. However, we may consider your request if you can show that exceptional circumstances prevented you from applying on time.
You can ask for a review of our decision by emailing review.team@southwark.gov.uk.
You can also request a review of decisions we have made about your Housing Register or Local Lettings Scheme application.
If you need help
An independent legal or specialist housing adviser can assist you with the process. To avoid delays, let us know as soon as possible that you are requesting a review, before you ask an adviser for help.
You may need support from social workers, doctors or other professionals who know about your situation. Their input can strengthen your case.
