Justice for The Fold!

Justice for The Fold!

Sign

Residents of 'The Fold' have been dealing with severe housing issues at the hands of their corporate landlord Legal & General 

The residents have reported a catalogue of issues that fall well below the legal obligations 

  • Dangerous living conditions including black mold, damp and  flooding, collapsed ceilings, and sewage leaks

  • Repeated maintenance failures including water outages, broken doors, faulty lift systems.

  • Serious fire safety failures including faulty alarms, unclear evacuation procedures, and unsafe ‘stay put’ policies putting residents at unacceptable risk.

  • Breaches of privacy and right to quiet enjoyment caused by frequent and unannounced visits from management and surveyors

  • Failure to protect tenant deposits in line with current legislation


Therefore ACORN members are demanding: 


  • Full rent compensation for tenants dating back to when the issues first began

  • Rent waived for existing tenants for the duration of their tenancies

  • Support finding alternative housing including covering moving costs

  • Improved and regular communication with tenants

Justice for The Fold!

ACORN members and residents of The Fold have been suffering since September 2022 at the hands of their corporate landlord Legal & General 

The residents have reported a catalogue of issues that fall well below the legal obligations of a landlord such as 

  • Dangerous living conditions including black mold, damp and  flooding, collapsed ceilings, and sewage leaks

  • Repeated maintenance failures including water outages, broken doors, faulty lift systems.

  • Serious fire safety failures including faulty alarms, unclear evacuation procedures, and unsafe ‘stay put’ policies putting residents at unacceptable risk.

  • Breaches of privacy and right to quiet enjoyment caused by frequent and unannounced visits from management and surveyors

  • Failure to protect tenant deposits in line with current legislation


Therefore ACORN members are demanding: 


  • Full rent compensation for tenants dating back to when the issues first began

  • Rent waived for existing tenants for the duration of their tenancies

  • Support finding alternative housing including covering moving costs

  • Improved and regular communication with tenants

We call apon Legal & General to come to an appropriate resolution for their tenants and for their demands to be met.
