Housing Benefit is money that can help you pay your rent if you are on a low income or need extra financial support. It is designed to make sure that you have a safe and secure place to live without worrying too much about how to cover the cost of rent. 

You might be able to get Housing Benefit if:

• You’re renting a property.
  
• You’re on a low income or receiving certain benefits.
  
• You’re living in supported housing or temporary accommodation. 

The amount of Housing Benefit you get depends on your income, rent, and personal situation.

• If you live with other people, how much they earn might affect what you get.
  
• If you are under 35 and live alone, you may only get help to cover the cost of a shared room.
