The Turning Point is currently closed
Until further notice, Brent's Homelessness service will be operating from The Civic Centre. This is a temporary change due to operational issues at the Turning Point building. If you need housing support, please contact singlehomelessnesstls@brent.gov.uk in the first instance. A member of our team will arrange for an officer to call you to complete an assessment.
If you cannot make your own arrangements, you may attend the Civic Centre directly. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
Paying for social care
Estimate what you might pay for care
Unlike health services, adult social care isn't always free. Most people will need to pay something towards the cost of their care and support. Use our financial calculator to see how much you may need to pay for your social care.
