Paying your rent

Housing benefit

If you think you may be eligible for Housing Benefit, see the Housing Benefit page or contact 01932 838383 or email tenancy.management@runnymede.gov.uk

If you are in receipt of Housing Benefit or the housing costs element of Universal Credit, struggling with your finances and you are in arrears with your rent then you can apply for a Discretionary Housing Payment (DHP). DHP payments can be paid as an interim measure to help protect your tenancy and prevent homelessness whilst you seek support.

More information is available at Discretionary Housing Payment – Runnymede Borough Council.
