Our History

Accommodation Concern was founded in 1987 by local day centres, clergy, and Councillors of all political persuasions to provide a single point of contact for anyone seeking housing advice.

The organisation has changed considerably over the years, expanding and retracting in size. Now, with CEO Jo Moore at the helm, Accommodation Concern is a professional organisation offering housing, debt and benefit advice, while also providing supported accommodation for single homeless people in North Northants.

Face to face support is key to Accommodation Concern and even during the pandemic this support continued.

We are the go-to agency locally for housing, debt and benefit advice. All services are free, at the point of delivery, and open to anyone from 16 years of age.

We realise that people want to access services at a place and time that is suitable for them so our advisors attend drop ins across the county at various bases with our partners. Many agencies and venues now commission us to attend at the time that suits their clients which we are proud to provide.
