The Housing Options Service (HOPS) High Peak

Welcome to the Housing Options website for the High Peak.

Age UK Derby & Derbyshire operate a Housing Options Service for the High Peak area, based with High Peak Community Housing. It aims to provide information, advice and support to people who are finding that their present accommodation is no longer suitable for their current needs. It provides information to help people look at options that are available to them to remain living independently, to enhance their quality of life, and to decide what action to take. If you would like to speak to a Housing Options Adviser, please call 01298 28400 or email ageukdd@derbyshiredales.gov.uk.

How has the Housing Options Service helped other people?

Mr & Mrs X contacted the service and were awarded an extra £200 per week in entitlements.

Mrs Y didn’t think she would like any of the housing she was being offered, until she visited with an Age UK Housing Options Adviser. She moved in and she loves it!
