Applying for Retirement and Extra Care Housing

We advertise the majority of our retirement and Extra Care housing through Homes Direct, a choice-based lettings system.

To apply for a home you will need to register with Homes Direct by visiting the Homes Direct website www.homesdirect.org.uk

Once registered, you will be given a registration number which you can use to bid for any home that you are eligible for.

If you place a bid it doesn’t mean you will automatically get the home, but it does mean you can choose a home you would like to be considered for rather than us doing this for you.

If you are already a BVT resident and aren’t able to apply online, have no one that can help you or are having difficulties using the Homes Direct website, please contact us 0300 333 6540.

Otherwise, please speak to your current landlord, or Midland Heart which administer Homes Direct, on the number shown on the Homes Direct website.

If you would like to apply for a home at the Quadrangle (Bournville Almshouses), please contact us direct for an application form by emailing enquiries@bvt.org.uk
