Rossendale only accepts new Housing Benefit claims if you or your partner are at state Pension Credit age, or if you live in temporary or supported accommodation. If you fit one of those categories, you can apply for Housing Benefit.

If you need to send evidence with your claim, Rossendale says to use the evidence uploader. It asks you to upload the documents they need and link them to the right person.
