Everyone has the right to feel safe in their own home. Three years since the Grenfell disaster costing 72 lives, hundreds of thousands of citizens are still living in unsafe buildings.

MPs have stood in Parliament discussing actions to be taken and expressing that leaseholders shouldn't have to pay to remove unsafe cladding, yet the new Draft Building Safety Bill states, "we are committed to making sure that leaseholders won’t pay unaffordable costs for historic repairs to their buildings." Ministers are proposing that tenants might have to pay a, “building safety charge” if required by the landlord, which include fire safety works. What does the Government deem to be "unaffordable" or indeed, reasonable?

The leaseholder must NOT cover costs for freeholders' mistakes and building safety failures. If the freeholder is unable to pay, the Government has to step in and do the right thing by providing further funding.    

Thousands of innocent homeowners are receiving bills demanding huge figures to replace unsafe cladding on their homes. The lack of help, urgency, and protection towards leaseholders is simply unacceptable. The government funds created are simply not enough and are not inclusive. Some freeholders refuse to cooperate and others have even failed to provide up to date financial accounts for the last couple of years.

Please sign, share, and help to ensure the correct parties are held responsible. Many residents are facing rising service charges which are often unjustified, building reserve funds, and now cladding works, the leaseholders around the country are being financially and mentally crippled through no fault of their own. The Government has continued to support freeholders and neglected leaseholders. 

We urge you to help us end our cladding scandal. 

Thank you!
