Funding to Provide Homes for Displaced People from Ukraine (Scotland)

Councils and Registered Social Landlords will be able to apply for funding from the Scottish Government to bring empty properties into use for those fleeing the conflict in Ukraine.

Up to £50 million in funding will be made available through the Ukraine Longer Term Resettlement Fund in a bid to increase the housing supply for Ukrainian refugees by refurbishing properties that otherwise would not be available for let.

The funding will ensure that good quality affordable homes will be available for rent for up to three years - in line with visa length - after which some will continue to be available as social rented homes.

Further details will follow.
