To make a referral for accommodation within County Durham, please complete the form with as much information as possible, not forgetting your contact details. We do not have immediate emergency access but we will endeavour to process your application as quickly as possible.

DASH accommodation is for single occupancy so we are unable to guarantee accommodation to applicants with a partner. If you and your partner wish to apply, please complete separate application forms.

If you prefer to download and complete the form later before emailing or posting it to us, you can find that form here Referral form

Following receipt of your application we will contact you to make arrangements for an interview. We do not have any blanket exclusions and welcome all referrals but any offer will be made following a risk assessment. We will also let you know if we are unable to offer you suitable accommodation.
