Thurrock Council: Families New to Thurrock

Our Well Homes scheme can help families feel safe and secure when they are housed in Thurrock from other boroughs. We can help new families get the support and information they need to feel part of their local community. In particular, we help families who may need more support because they have low income, poor health, young children, or are vulnerable for other reasons.
