Thanet District Council’s annual landlord event takes place next week.
The forum aims to bring the council and landlords together to promote good quality homes and management standards in the private rented sector. It is a chance to discuss best practice and helps to raise awareness amongst landlords of their obligations and what the council can do to support them.

The programme includes speakers from Beckett Chambers, the National Landlords Association, Thanet District Council, Porchlight, Margate Task Force, Jobcentre Plus and Kreston Reeves Accountants and Financial Planners.
