Notting Hill Housing – www.nottinghillhousing.org.uk

“At Notting Hill Housing we want to provide homes people love, not homes they have to put up with.

We want to help people follow their dreams and fulfil their hopes, not feel confined by an unlovely, un-loved home.

For many people, of course, any home would be lovely. Helping homeless people, first into temporary housing (through our Home Options advisory service), then into rented accommodation, is a fundamental part of our work.”
