Nowhere to stay tonight

If you are homeless tonight and do not have anywhere where to go, then you need to contact the homeless team straight away.

If you need to contact the team between Monday to Friday from 8:30am to 5:00pm, or need to call outside of these days and hours, then please contact the homeless team on 01709 336009.

You can also email the team at housingsolutionsteam@rotherham.gov.uk, but please put ‘homeless tonight’ in the email subject line and put a phone number so we can make contact as soon as possible. If we do not have this information, then we may not be able to contact you on the day.
