🏠 HAVING PROBLEMS WITH YOUR HOUSING ASSOCIATION OR COUNCIL LANDLORD?

Are you being ignored? Are repairs not getting done? Have you complained but nothing seems to change?

💙 RIGHT STEP UK IS HERE TO HELP!

We understand how frustrating and stressful it can be when you’re having problems with your social landlord, especially when you feel nobody is listening.

At Right Step UK, we offer FREE independent advocacy, guidance and practical support to help tenants understand their rights and get their concerns heard.

We can support you with:

🔧 Repairs & Maintenance

* Outstanding or repeatedly delayed repairs
* Damp, mould and property conditions
* Unsafe or unsuitable living conditions
* Landlords failing to respond to reported problems

🏘️ Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB)

* Ongoing nuisance, harassment and neighbour disputes
* Concerns about how ASB reports are being handled
* Helping you record incidents and evidence
* Supporting you to escalate unresolved concerns

📋 Complaints & Landlord Failures

* Complaints being ignored or delayed
* Unsatisfactory responses from landlords
* Helping you follow the correct complaints procedure
* Escalating unresolved complaints to the Housing Ombudsman, where appropriate

🤝 Independent Advocacy & Support

* Helping you write letters and formal complaints
* Contacting and liaising with your landlord, with your consent
* Attending meetings and supporting you in discussions
* Helping you understand your rights and the landlord’s responsibilities
* Supporting you to gather evidence and keep accurate records
* Referring you to specialist housing or legal services where needed

YOU DON’T HAVE TO FIGHT TO BE HEARD ON YOUR OWN!

Sometimes people don’t know where to start, who to complain to or what to do when their landlord fails to act.

That’s where we can help.

We can guide you through the correct process, advocate on your behalf and help ensure your concerns are taken seriously.

💙 Our advocacy and practical support are FREE.

💙 NEED HELP WITH A LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY?

You don’t always need to pay expensive solicitor fees to arrange a Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA).

At Right Step UK, we can provide FREE practical support to help you understand and complete the paperwork for a Lasting Power of Attorney.

A Lasting Power of Attorney allows you to appoint someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf if you become unable to do so, or, for certain decisions, when you choose.

There are two types:

🏠 Property & Financial Affairs – Helping manage money, bills, bank accounts and property.

❤️ Health & Welfare – Decisions about care, medical treatment and day-to-day wellbeing if you lose mental capacity.

How can we help?

✅ Explain the application process.

✅ Help you complete the relevant forms.

✅ Guide you through the registration process.

✅ Help you check whether you qualify for reduced or waived registration fees.

✅ Help you understand when specialist legal advice may be needed.

Our assistance is FREE.

The Office of the Public Guardian (OPG) normally charges a registration fee for each LPA. However, people receiving certain means-tested benefits may qualify for an exemption, while those on a low income may qualify for a reduction.

You remain responsible for any applicable OPG fees.

You don’t necessarily need a solicitor to prepare an LPA, and we’re here to help make the process more accessible.
