Our application process is now closed.
We aren’t accepting new applications at the moment. We’ve received a high number of applicants from our latest advert (23/04/25), so are unable to take any more while we process and consider these.
If you have applied to us in April, we appreciate your patience and will contact you in the next two weeks if you have met our initial criteria.
If you would like to access Latch’s support and housing service, we recommend signing up to our email list here. We will send you an email when we are open for applications again, and the form will be available here.
Please read the information here about our requirements and the service Latch provides.
What happens when I apply?
- We review your application to check you meet our criteria for housing.
- If you meet our initial criteria, we will contact you to discuss your support needs.
- If appropriate, we may then offer you an in-person assessment.
- We will apply for the two references we normally require.
- Following the assessment, if we are able to offer you support and housing we will let you know within a week.
- We will offer you any suitable property available, or place you on our waiting list.
- If placed on our waiting list we will offer you the next suitable property that becomes available
If you would like to know how we use the information you provide on your application form, please read our Latch Privacy Notice.
