Housing and Shelter Resources
Below is a small collection of resources available in London for housing based on a variety of needs.
“Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and his family, including food, clothing, housing, and medical care and necessary social services.”
— Article 25, The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948, Canada)
Often the best bet to finding affordable, well-maintained housing is through word of mouth. If you are looking, your network of friends, family and neighbours can help spread the word to find you a suitable home. Often good-deal apartments never make it to the newspaper because they get passed from one friend to the next. Newspapers, available for free to read at your local library, have daily listings.
In addition to word of mouth and local newspapers, LIFE*SPIN has gathered multiple resources to help you find the right home and support. The following resources are categorized based on the primary needs of the individual or family. If you cannot find a resource that meets your needs please contact us, we are happy to help you find something that is not on this list.
