How to Apply for Sheltered Accommodation

How to apply for sheltered housing depends on whether or not you are already a council tenant.

If you are an existing tenant of East Devon District Council and want to move into sheltered accommodation, you will need to complete a transfer application form.

If you are not already a tenant, you can apply for sheltered housing by completing a Housing Register application form and a Support Needs form.

Eligibility
You will normally be expected to be either:

  • over 60 years of age
  • have a disability that would benefit from the service

For further information, please contact the Housing Needs team.
