Temporary accommodation
Our current temporary accommodation is at Saunderton Lodge, around 6 miles outside High Wycombe.
Emergency accommodation
When the weather is forecast to be freezing or below for three consecutive nights we will provide emergency accommodation to anyone verified as rough sleeping in the Wycombe District. This emergency accommodation is provided in partnership with our partner agencies, including Wycombe Homeless Connection and Connection Support's Rough Sleeper Outreach.
Back To TopFinding a home
We can help you:
- with your Bucks Home Choice application (for social housing).
- explain the housing options available to you, including temporary accommodation or private housing
- request a reviewing of a housing decision
Back To TopHousing plans
We will work with you to agree a personalised housing plan to either prevent or relieve homelessness depending on the circumstances.
This plan will likely include steps you have agreed to take, such as negotiate with your parent or landlord if either are taking steps to evict you, or it may be that you will agree to try to find your own accommodation.
We will include steps that we have agreed to take, for example we may talk to your parent or landlord about trying to keep you in your current home if it’s suitable and safe to.
