Housing has been a common theme in Poverty Truth Commissions up and down the country, with Commissioners who have experience of poverty highlighting the poor standards they experience renting their homes from private landlords and the barriers to getting repairs and improvements. Our Commissioners who are social landlords and senior local authority leaders have pointed out the discrepancy between the scrutiny applied to council and social housing and that given to rented tenures. Joining the Renters Reform Coalition means we are part of a combined effort to enable everyone renting in the private sector to live somewhere that they can call home.

We support the Renters' Reform Coalition because we believe that everyone should have access to a decent, safe and affordable place to call home and that renters should receive a good service from their landlord.

At Impact on Urban Health, we know that a stable, secure, affordable home is essential to protecting and maintaining our physical and mental wellbeing. People in precarious, privately rented housing pay for it with their health, and the burden falls hardest on those who have the least. That’s why we support the work of the Renter’s Reform Coalition on reform for the private rental sector – because inequalities in housing contribute to inequalities in health.

We are pleased to support the Renters Reform Coalition. Housing affordability matters for health, both directly and indirectly. Those on the lowest incomes often having to spend a greater proportion on their housing costs.

The Domestic Abuse Housing Alliance’s (DAHA) mission is to improve the housing sector’s response to domestic abuse. We support the coalition’s campaign to bring in the Renter’s Reform Bill because domestic abuse affects people in any tenure type. It is vital that survivors who live in the private rented sector have access to safe and secure housing as well as the support they need.

Standing Together Against Domestic Abuse is a national charity bringing communities together to end domestic abuse. We support the coalition’s mission to reform the private rented sector because access to safe, stable and affordable housing is crucial to enable survivors of domestic abuse to escape their abusers and rebuild their lives.

We fully support the aims and vision of the Renters' Reform Coalition.

At Marks Out Of Tenancy, we believe renters aren't given access to all the information they need. So we set about changing that. Renters use Marks Out Of Tenancy to rate and review their landlords, letting agents, rental properties and neighbourhoods to bridge the information gap between one renter and the next. In reading previous renters experiences, future renters can make better informed decisions. Working together with our Renters' Reform Coalition partners enables us to improve conditions in the private rental sector, to ensure the voices of all renters are heard.

Homeless Link is the national membership charity for frontline homelessness organisations in England. Our aim is for everyone to have a safe place to live and the support they need to maintain it. Reforming the private rented sector to make it more secure and affordable will be key to realising this goal.

We're partnering with the Renters Reform Coalition to make sure that the voices of Disabled people are heard in the housing crisis. We recognise that many of the barriers to safe and accessible housing disproportionately impact Disabled people. Therefore, it's essential that we are part of this conversation - and we are looking forward to collaborating with those in the coalition.

Solace works with over 23,500 survivors of male violence in London every year. Domestic abuse is one of the biggest causes of homelessness in the UK and the lack of safe, suitable and affordable accommodation is a barrier to women and children fleeing from and recovering from abuse. Around 20% of the survivors we work with are privately renting and they are twice as likely to be precariously housed as a result of fleeing abuse. It is therefore vital that the private rented sector is reformed to provide the safety and security they need.
