Housing Plus
You can now get advice on housing, education, training,
benefits, debt and much more thanks to Ashford Borough Council's
Housing Plus service.
By working with a series of partners Housing Plus can offer
advice and help on a wide range of important issues under one roof
at the Ashford and
Tenterden Gateways.
Housing Plus can offer advice and assistance on housing
options, employment, training and volunteering opportunities plus
benefits advice through a new service
with the Kent Benefit Partnership.
A new, enhanced debt advice service is also available
from both the Ashford and Tenterden Gateways.
Drop in to the Ashford Plus Gateway at any
time on Monday to Friday from 9.00 til 4.00 or on a Saturday from
9.00 til 1.00 and you will be able to see an Officer who will
do his or her best to answer your query and offer you
advice. If you require more in depth advice or information,
an appointment will be made for you to see a Housing Options
Officer or you can make an appointment by calling 01233 330368.
A Housing Plus DVD has been produced which talks about
the Housing Plus service and includes interviews from two customers
who have benefitted from the service.
