• What you can do

All of the campaigning action we undertake requires a lot of time, effort and money. The RLA’s experience shows that we need professional help and advocacy to achieve our objectives.

You can help by:

persuading other Landlords to join the RLA.
• making sure you renew your subscription. We need to increase membership to make the RLA’s voice even louder.
• helping us to gauge member’s concerns by responding to any web questionnaires we send out and getting involved in any polls and on the members forumsforums, etc

If you have individual issues, let us know. These issues could be of concern to other members either in your region or on a nationwide basis. Take every chance to lobby your MP or local council. Attend the Landlord’s forum or an RLA meeting where there is one near you.

We cannot do this work alone.
