GPs do not provide housing support letters – Sheffield City Council does not require them, and Housing Associations are not entitled to them.
If SCC needs medical evidence, they will contact the GP directly with patient consent.
Patients can seek support from hospital specialists, social workers, or other professionals.

GPs are no longer required to provide professional references for rehousing applications. The absence of a GP reference will not negatively impact applications.

If a professional requires a supporting document, you can request that they email the practice, with information around what is needed to support your request. Where appropriate we may be able to help with this.
