Landlords’ Forum – Thursday 25th October at Yeovil Rugby Club, Dorchester Road, Yeovil
South Somerset District Council is hosting its sixth in a series of Landlords’ Forums run in partnership with the National Landlords Association. The first five forums have been very well attended.
It is anticipated that this will be a very popular event because the coalition government is introducing Universal Credit, which could bring changes for landlords and tenants. Ian Potter – Head of Benefits and Revenues will be talking through the changes.

The agenda provides details of the programme which can be found on the website and there will be a number of speakers presenting a range of topics and an opportunity to network with other landlords. Representatives from the National Landlords Association, The Valuation Office, SSDC Environmental Health and the SSDC Homeless Team will be on hand to assist with any enquiries.
