reapply

More than 2,000 people will have to reapply for social housing in one area of Wales.

Ceredigion council said it needed to change its system due to increased demand on the housing register and homelessness services, meaning everyone needs to reapply.

The council said everyone on the register would need to reapply, which could lead to a different place on the list.

"We can reassure people that if they reapply to the register by 31 January 2026, we will honour the effective date of the original application, and there will be no need to resubmit evidence such as medical certificates," a council spokesperson said.

One woman who has been waiting for a social house in Ceredigion for two years said she had seen a post on Facebook that said she needed to reapply.
