Help shape your future council websites

New websites are being developed for East Surrey Council and West Surrey Council ahead of their launch in April 2027. 

Take part in a short survey to help make sure those websites are easy to use. The survey takes just 5 to 10 minutes.

Prioritising applications

Priority bands

We use a priority bands scheme to classify an applicant's circumstances and their connection to Guildford.

The priority bands range from A - E. Band A is the highest priority.

The higher an applicant's priority banding, the better chance they have of moving quickly. When an application is awarded a high priority banding, it does not necessarily mean that an applicant will be rehoused immediately.

You must have a substantial or long lasting connection to someone in living in the area to qualify for priority bands A and B.
