Homes for Ukraine: record your interest

If you want to offer a home to people fleeing Ukraine, you can become a ‘sponsor’ as part of the Homes for Ukraine scheme.

Use this service to record your interest in becoming a sponsor. You can do this as an individual or as an organisation.

You can read more about the Homes for Ukraine scheme.

If you already know someone

If you already know a Ukrainian national (or immediate family member) who you want to sponsor, you can help them apply for a visa under the Ukraine Sponsorship Scheme.

If they do not have a sponsor, they will be matched with people or organisations who have recorded their interest through this service.

Who can record their interest

Anyone in the UK with a spare room or home can use this service, as long as:

• you can offer accommodation for at least 6 months
• if you’re not a British citizen, you have leave to remain in the UK for at least 6 months

Record your interest as an individual

Record your interest as an organisation

What happens next

The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) will contact you about your interest.

You can read more about being a sponsor, including responsibilities, checks, and how you can support your guests.

If you have a family member fleeing Ukraine

You do not need to record your interest as a sponsor if you have a family member fleeing Ukraine. They should apply for the Ukraine Family Scheme visa instead.
