Council Finder: Housing Help Near You
Enter your postcode once and go straight to the right page on your own council's website.
Find your own council: we have a step-by-step complaint page for every UK council, with its process, time limits and ombudsman. Find your council in the A to Z.
Free. Your postcode is sent only to GOV.UK, the government website, which then takes you to your council. CPUK does not see or keep it. These links cover England; GOV.UK also covers some services in Wales.
Two Councils in Your Area?
In some parts of England there is a district council and a county council. Housing, council tax, homelessness and noise are usually handled by the district council; adult social care is handled by the county council. GOV.UK will show you both if it needs to.
Problems with A Private Landlord?
There is no single national form. Use Your Council's Website above and search for private housing or environmental health, or read how to report a landlord to the council.
