Furnished Tenancies

The Furnished Tenancy Scheme makes it possible for you to set up a comfortably furnished FCHO home.

Many people have difficulty setting up a home because of the high initial costs. The Furnished Tenancy Scheme enables you to avoid these barriers by providing a furniture package for which you pay a service charge on top of your rent.

If you are eligible, the service charge may be covered by Housing Benefit.
