LAG Housing Law Conference 2026
8 July | 9:30am - 6pm | BPP University London Central (Holborn)
The Renters Rights Act is in force, now it’s about making it Work For Tenants.
This conference brings together campaigners, advisers, lived experience groups and lawyers to share ideas, swap experiences, and consider how the new laws can actually make a difference.
The conference will focus on some of the main issues affecting tenants and how we build practical strategies to respond to them, including:
Abuse of possession grounds
Challenging rent increases
Unlawful landlord actions
Disrepair after Awaab's Law
Homelessness
Join us for this opportunity to learn from each other, build connections, and develop ways of working that strengthen Access To Justice in a meaningful, collective way.
