Rent Help You Didn't Know Existed | Leeds News

Struggling to pay rent? You’re not alone—and help is out there. Citizens Advice says don’t ignore the problem: options like Universal Credit, Housing Benefit, council discretionary payments, or even cutting back on other bills can ease the pressure. Check your eligibility for housing support—even if you’re working. Explain your situation clearly to your council if you need a one-off payment, especially if you have dependents. If you’re behind, talk to your landlord about a realistic payment plan. Some benefits can cover arrears after eight weeks of missed rent. Don’t forget council tax reductions and verify if your rent hike was legal. Act now—don’t let this snowball into eviction.
