A national organisation has been set up for private tenants.
The National Private Tenants Organisation has been formed by private tenant bodies in Blackpool, Brent, Camden and Scarborough.
The organisation is open to private tenant groups and individual tenants, including those who have complaints about their landlords or living accommodation.
Kevin Allen, chair, said: “This is a critical time for private tenants to have a national voice. With home ownership out of reach for many people and the lack of social housing, private renting is becoming the only option for many.
“We have real concerns about rogue landlords and sub-standard homes.”
