We asked Citizens Advice to produce a toolkit for advisers on housing discrimination.

The toolkit will also be useful for individuals looking for guidance on their own circumstances.

The toolkit can help you to:

  • understand how equality law works
  • decide if a case counts as unlawful discrimination
  • write a complaint letter
  • take a case to court

The toolkit includes templates for letters, documents and forms that you might need when looking into a discrimination case. 

The guides are available on the Citizens Advice website:

Do you work for an advice organisation?

If you work for an advice organisation or a trade union you can get help on equality and human rights issues using our EHRC Adviser Support service.
