Applications to rent these properties can be made through the Fife Housing Register - a unified application process supported by Fife Council and the four housing associations located within the region.

Beyond the housing sector, OVHA also operates a community recycling project called '2nd Time Around' aimed at recycling domestic and white goods to assist local families, new tenants etc.
