Hostels for the homeless
If you are homeless you may be able to stay in a hostel.
You'll need a referral to get into many hostels and night shelters. This means an agency or Kirklees Council Housing Solutions Service will need to contact the hostel on your behalf.
Some hostels and night shelters will let you call them yourself or turn up in person. This is called self-referral.
