Licences

We haven't checked this council's own licensing schemes or planning limits on house shares yet, so we can't say whether any apply here.

Anywhere in England, a house share of 5 or more people from more than one household needs a licence from the council - an HMO licence.

Housing allowance

Housing allowance is the most that benefits pay towards a tenant's rent each month.
