📻Check out ACORN Leeds member Sam on BBC Radio Leeds, talking about why tenants across the country are taking action against evictions and rent debt today!

Through our strength in numbers the Government has been forced to extend the eviction ban again, but we need to push them further. They cannot just kick the can down the road, with hundreds of thousands of renters still in arrears, their futures and homes in limbo.

We demand real protection from eviction and a proper solution to the rent debt crisis, so no tenant has to fear homelessness during a pandemic. And we'll be mobilizing from our doorsteps to the street to fight for it today.
