Hi
I will have a rent shortfall of £200 a month as my son is moving out and I have a spare room. This shortfall is after the landlord has agreed on a rent reduction of £300.
I have a council tax band reduction due to
being disabled and my current house meeting specific needs.
I have carers that live very near me and regularly stay overnight, if I had to move, I wouldn’t get the extra support I receive.

Is there a good chance I could get for a DHP to cover the shortfall ?

I don't think anyone here can answer that question. The only thing you can do is apply but they may tell you that you need to find somewhere else to live in a smaller property. If they do award the DHP it's only for a short period and then you need to reapply.
