Supporting You

Resident support

Bristol Community Housing Foundation aims to enable all of our residents to enjoy their homes and their neighbourhood. We also provide numerous opportunities to become involved with the Foundation and local community.

Moving in

You will be given information about grants that may be available to you, support agencies and help with claiming housing benefit if these are appropriate.  When you move into your new home you will be given an escorted viewing on the day and shown how everything works including the central heating and hot water system.

Furniture Re-use

BCHF recommends the Sofa Project to residents who are looking for affordable furniture and domestic appliances.

The Sofa Project sells new and second-hand items to people on a low income. Items can be viewed in their showroom in West Street, Old Market.

If you have an item of furniture you would like to donate, please contact 0117 3543573 or visit the Sofa Project website by clicking here.
