If you do not have anywhere to live you should contact your local council or your support worker as soon as you can. Find contact details for your local council here.

The council should help you make a homelessness application and, if you are sleeping rough, or at risk of finding yourself on the street, the council should give you emergency accommodation. This is because coronavirus can spread very easily and if you are sleeping on the streets it is very difficult for you to keep to the government health advice for hygiene, self-isolation and social distancing.

If you are given emergency accommodation or are already living in emergency accommodation, you will be expected to stick to the rules the Welsh Government has set to prevent coronavirus spreading.

If you have symptoms of coronavirus you will need to self-isolate. The council or your landlord should help you access somewhere suitable to self-isolate during that period. This might be where you are currently staying or, if not suitable for self-isolation, somewhere else. They should also provide you with the support you need, food and medical help if needed.

If you are in a hostel you may be given a separate isolation pod away from others and separate hygiene facilities.
