If you refuse the accommodation offered
What happens if I refuse the temporary accommodation I am offered?
You will get one offer of temporary accommodation, and if you refuse this offer, you will need to make your own arrangements and find somewhere to stay.
Temporary accommodation should be suitable for your household’s needs (in line with the legislation), we strongly advise you accept the accommodation.
If you refuse the accommodation, this will end the council’s duty to house you, and you will have to find your own place to stay.
You may be asked to move to other temporary accommodation during your stay. If you refuse to move to other accommodation if we ask you to, this can also end the council’s duty to house you.
If you do not stay in the accommodation we provide, this can end the council’s duty to house you.
