“4.4 million households in the private rented sector are crying out for change. Everyone should have a secure home, in a decent and safe condition, that they can afford. Changing the law to help renters is long overdue – and that’s why I’m supporting the Renters Reform Coalition.”

"The Renters' Reform Bill must be prioritised - the fear of eviction caused by S21 can stop households from establishing roots in local communities and at a time when wellbeing and belonging is at an all-time low, we should be easing these anxieties. Our biggest issue now is stopping mass homelessness - prevention at a time of severe crisis is the only answer."

"We should all have a safe, healthy and affordable place to call home. This is crucial to our health and wellbeing, our family and work life, and our dignity. However, millions of people across the UK live in homes that are insecure, unaffordable, and poorly insulated, with damp, mould and disrepair. It doesn't have to be this way. We know that everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them by working together.
We support the Renters’ Reform Coalition’s aims and working collaboratively with partners to build power and win change."

We are delighted to join the Renters' Reform Coalition. Instead of leaving organisations to lobby for change in isolation, the coalition brings us together as a united voice to fight for renters. The tenancy deposit return process in the UK is overly complex, deterring tenants from fighting for a fair outcome. We look forward to working with the coalition to lobby for reform, closing loopholes exploited by landlords, and ensure a faster and fairer deposit return process for all tenants.

We support the Renters' Reform Coalition because everyone deserves a decent and dignified life. The state of the private rented sector is anything but this. Over 1 in 5 private renters live in homes which fail basic standards, while the majority spend substantially more of their income on rent than those in other tenures.
The alternative is building a society where everyone has safe, secure and genuinely affordable housing and people can exercise real agency in their homes. That means redesigning how our housing system is owned, operates and in whose interests. With unaffordability, inaccessibility and poor housing quality rife in the private rented sector, reform for tenants is an important part of that puzzle.

We stand with the Renters Reform Coalition because housing is a powerful tool that can be used to address deepening structural inequalities. Black and Minoritised Ethnic renters often face discrimination at every stage of their tenancy and are disproportionately affected by poor housing and overcrowded conditions.
At Voice4Change England, we recognise that secure housing is fundamental to our mental and physical health, education, environment, relationships, communities, income, and dignity. We strive for an anti-racist rental market that acknowledges and addresses the realities of racism when renting – one that centres belonging, accountability, and the lived experiences of racialised communities.

We are pleased to support the aims of the Renters Reform Coalition. Our members face the exact same injustices when renting as everyone in the UK as we all those they face as migrants. There is no stand-alone asylum housing crisis - there is a housing crisis that affects everyone regardless of country of origin in a lot of the same ways. For those who arrive seeking asylum, they face some greater challenges but it cannot be resolved by separating one set of people from another. We organise to build our power and fight for decent, secure and affordable housing for all.
