🚨Renters, know your rights!

The upcoming end of fixed term contracts means more security and control for tenants. Your home won’t just come with an expiry date anymore.

When Kim from Herne Hill was facing eviction and a huge rent hike in March 2024, we took action, stopped the eviction and reduced the rent hike

Marie and her children faced years of leaks, mold and infestations. Her ceiling collapsed, exposing asbestos.
After ACORN went to the council offices and demanded better for her, they agreed a schedule of repairs

Our member Karen was living for years with no cooker and unsafe electrics in her council-owned home. In September she got a new kitchen, with more work scheduled.

The more people we have, the bigger we can win for our communities.

Glad to join @acornlambeth.bsky.social for my first action tonight as we called upon Lambeth Council to end the use of bailiffs to collect council tax. The system is broken. It’s unfair and ineffective, with poorer homes paying disproportionately more than rich ones.

‼️ Community court support needed ‼️

HfL Tenants, Manuel and Rasa, are facing no-fault evictions. We’re asking everyone to come and sit in the courtroom to show community support. Anyone can come! You don’t need to speak, chant, or do anything at all. Just being there is more than enough.
