The University of Bristol has been awarded a grant by Shelter to conduct this research project. The project team is Dave Cowan (Bristol), Helen Carr (Kent), Ed Kirton-Darling (Kent), and Ed Burtonshaw-Gunn (Bristol).
Summary of the project
This research project uses a survey method to address three objectives:
We are seeking evidence from renters and owner-occupiers, lawyers, other professionals involved in looking at the conditions of accommodation, and landlords (social and private). Findings from this research will be used to produce a report for Shelter and other academic work. This report and other work will not identify you, your household, or your business/place of work.
At Training for Professionals we have long held that the biggest issue lies in a lack of enforcement and so we are delighted that this is finally being looked at. You can have your say by clicking here.
