Session 6: Awaab’s Law – making your home safer, faster

This event is part of a ten-session training series designed to help social housing residents understand their rights, how to stand up for them, and get better treatment and services from landlords.

Awaab’s Law, part of the Social Housing (Regulation) Act 2023, requires social landlords to investigate and fix health hazards in their homes—like damp and mould—within set time limits. This session will explain what Awaab’s Law means, how it changes current rules, and the timescales for making these changes. It will also focus specifically on damp and mould, which is the main issue addressed in the first stage.

The session will include a mix of presentations and group discussions. We may use breakout rooms, and we’ll let you know at the start if that’s the case. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to share your experiences, ask questions, and connect with others. Session is open to all social housing residents. Closed captions will be enabled.
