What is tenancy sustainment? Tenancy sustainment is giving tenants (either at the start or during their tenancy) the help and support they may need to allow them to stay in their homes. It can also help prevent tenants becoming homeless through eviction or abandonment.
Our Housing Officers are able to find out through Annual Tenancy Visits or from other contact with tenants, whether tenants are struggling with their tenancies, and who may be in need of some extra help. Those tenants who may need help have access to a range of support, including help with furniture requirements, money/debt advice to prevent and reduce arrears, support for younger tenants and home energy advice.

Support is accessed through referrals to our own in-house welfare rights and energy advice team, or to external agencies who offer specialist support.
