HOW TO RENT GUIDE
A new version of this guide (How to rent – the checklist for renting in England) has just been released by the Government – it is for anyone who are about to rent – whether a whole flat or house, or ‘simply’ a room in a shared house.
It is mandatory by law, that you are given this brochure before you move in. However, it is also a good idea to go through and read it – it contains lots of useful and important information that you would want to know about before singing any documents.
This guide will help you to understand what questions to ask, what your rights are, and what responsibilities you have. This will help you create a positive relationship with your landlord, and will also tell you how to get help if things go wrong.
You can get a copy of the document by clicking here - or by clicking on the picture.
You are welcome to contact us for additional information, or if you have any questions.
This is a new version – please check this latest updated version.

BLINDED BY THE LIGHT
There's no resisting the charms of the Boss!
Javed is a British teen of Pakistani descent growing up in 1987 in Luton. Amidst the racial and economic turmoil of the times, he writes poetry as a means to escape the intolerance of his hometown and the inflexibility of his traditional father. But when a classmate introduces him to the music of Bruce Springsteen, Javed sees parallels to his working-class life in the powerful lyrics. As Javed discovers an outlet for his own pent-up dreams, he also begins to express himself in his own voice.
