We were set up in 2012 by Brent Council and Locality to grow the use of vacant property for projects that deliver economic development and social or environmentally led regeneration. Vacant property represents a cost to landlords and developers and can drain the vitality out of our neighbourhoods. We work to capture the costs and turn them into opportunities to create social and economic value. We do this by becoming the tenants of vacant properties and enabling people to make valuable use of them in a way that supports their neighbourhoods. Our charitable status means that it can be more affordable for us to occupy a space than for it to sit empty.
The Turning Point is currently closed
Until further notice, Brent's Homelessness service will be operating from The Civic Centre. This is a temporary change due to operational issues at the Turning Point building. If you need housing support, please contact singlehomelessnesstls@brent.gov.uk in the first instance. A member of our team will arrange for an officer to call you to complete an assessment.
If you cannot make your own arrangements, you may attend the Civic Centre directly. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.
