Housing, planning and health
Health
The following booklet provides advice on basic healthcare
services in Kent and Medway.
Housing
If you would like advice on any housing matter, you should
contact your local housing authority using the contact details
below. If you are worried about becoming homeless, you should seek
their advice as soon as possible.
Housing authority staff can help you to complete any forms.
If you make yourself intentionally homeless (ie. if you lost
your accommodation through a deliberate act which you knew may lead
to you being homeless), you will not be eligible for accommodation.
However, the housing authority will still provide advice.
Contact details of the local housing
authorities.
Planning
If you would like advice on any planning matter, you should
contact your local planning authority using the contact details
below. Ask to speak to "Planning".
If you are considering setting up your own site, seek advice
from the local planning authority before you purchase any land. The
Authority will be able to advise in general terms whether specified
locations are likely to be acceptable and what restrictions there
might be.
Do not simply buy the land and pull onto it. This will be
treated as an Unauthorised Development and you are likely to have
action taken against you by the local planning authority. You will
be treated just like anyone else who develops land without planning
consent.
Contact details of the local planning
authorities.
