What you'll learn
Care leavers are heavily over-represented among young homeless people, and the jump to a first tenancy is where it often breaks. This course covers: your tenancy rights and what a landlord can and can't do; the first 30 days of a new place, neighbour noise, and feeling safe in an unfamiliar area; what to do if you're placed somewhere unsuitable or isolated; spotting the warning signs before a tenancy fails (missed rent, disrepair, isolation); and the homelessness pathway, who to contact and what to say if you're about to lose your home. Includes a template letter for disrepair and a contacts list to fill in.
