The Disabled Persons Housing Register is an active register of disabled people seeking housing.  The DPHS(F) will provide each customer with housing information and advice.  For those seeking affordable rented housing we will use our Housing Options Register to ensure the appropriate forms are completed by the customer.  DPHS(F) also liaises with housing providers to advocate on behalf of customers so that there can be an effective match between the customers needs with the type of vacant property. 
A Housing Options Register has been developed which is  a detailed computer based information system on all current and planned housing stock including accessible, barrier free and supported housing across Fife. 

Community Profile Reports:  On occasion when a disabled person can find no appropriate property to appropriately meet their needs, DPHS(F) will ensure that their need is reported to the Development Team who assist housing providers to identify types of property requiring to be built.  This information is provided without any identification of the customer but related initially to property type and area.   Resource Library.  This ensures that future developments can start to meet need.  At the moment this profiling is only available to socially rented partners (Fife Council and Housing Assocations).
Other Options:  DPHS(Fife) staff are trained to HomePoint Level 2 and keep up to date with all sorts of options like Shared Equity, etc and can ensure you receive details of all possible options open to you so that you can make an informed decision.
