welcome to NOTIFY

NOTIFY is a web-based notification and information system, designed to improve homeless households' access to services. Its primary role is to notify relevant services of the placement or movement of homeless households placed in temporary accommodation by London boroughs under homelessness legislation. It will also produce comprehensive information on homelessness and temporary accommodation in London. The system uses information provided by London borough housing departments to notify housing, education, social care, and health services about homeless households placed in, moving between or leaving temporary accommodation. Information is contained in a database and updated weekly. Authorised users of the NOTIFY notifications website can view information held on NOTIFY at any time, by accessing that website. Relevant services receive a weekly email alert from NOTIFY, informing them of any unviewed notifications and reminding them to access the website. NOTIFY is administered by London Councils. It was developed jointly by the Greater London Authority (GLA) London Councils.
