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.

Meanwhile Uses

Meanwhile Uses temporarily occupy premises, sites or spaces which are vacant or underutilised. These are projects which help reactivate town centres, support local businesses and contribute to community development.
