How many asylum seekers are in North Warwickshire?

67 people were receiving Home Office asylum support in North Warwickshire at 30 June 2026, the most recent quarter published. That ranks 211th of 361 UK local authorities. It counts people on support at that date, which is not the number who claimed asylum there and not the number waiting for a decision.

How many asylum seekers per 10,000 people are in North Warwickshire?

9.9 per 10,000 residents, which places North Warwickshire in the 61st percentile of UK local authorities. It carries more people on asylum support per head than 61% of the country. Rate is the fair comparison between areas, because a large city carries more people than a small district at the same pressure per head.

Are there asylum hotels in North Warwickshire?

Not on the published figures. North Warwickshire recorded nobody in contingency accommodation at 30 June 2026, which is the category that includes hotels. The 67 people on asylum support there are recorded in dispersal housing or on subsistence-only support.

Who houses asylum seekers in North Warwickshire?

Serco holds the Home Office asylum accommodation contract for the region North Warwickshire sits in, under the Asylum Accommodation and Support Contracts. The contract covers a whole region rather than a single council, and the Home Office does not publish a council-by-council split of which properties sit under it.

North Warwickshire: asylum numbers still rising

Quarter-end stock series to Jun 2026. A rise or fall is a net change in the number of people on support at period end, not the number of new claims or distinct people moving through the caseload. Support stock also overlaps with, but is not identical to, the awaiting-decision backlog.
