I am struggling with money/debt
Housing advice service
Due to the current situation, we are having to prioritise our housing advice service to respond to contacts from those who are currently homeless/imminently threatened with homelessness only.If you attempt to contact us in relation to your Homeseekerplus application, banding decisions, or you require general housing advice there is likely to be a substantial delay in response. Up-to-date information will be made available at Homeseekerplus.co.uk and the ‘Help’ section may provide you with answers to any queries you may have.
We do appreciate your patience at this difficult time.
If you are experiencing financial difficulties for any reason there is help available. The Housing Advice Team at Stroud District Council is able to refer you to our specialist money advice service run by the Citizens Advice Bureau.

Foodbank
The housing advice team are providers of foodbank vouchers. We can issue these to individuals or families in crisis situations, each voucher can be exchanged for food parcels from the foodbank.
We are unable to provide this service over the telephone and each applicant will be required to collect their voucher from the council offices. Further information and a full list of providers can be found on the foodbank website.
