What does a local connection mean?

Summary

To have a local connection with South Norfolk you need to be a resident now and for at least the previous six months; you will need to provide proof to confirm your connection.

Further information

For certain local needs housing you will need to provide:

  • a 10 year housing history
  • contract of employment (if working in South Norfolk)

Without this evidence we will not be able to verify your eligibility for these properties and you are unlikely to be prioritised for them. We are currently reviewing local connection and would welcome your views. We will shortly be consulting on these changes so please check our website.
