Housing

If your landlord tells you that he or she wants you to leave, check your tenancy agreement to see what notice you are entitled to. Unless you are in arrears with your rent, you will normally be entitled to 2 full months' notice, which should give you sufficient time to find alternative accommodation.

Unless you share accommodation with your landlord you will usually be entitled to get written notice and a court order before having to leave. It is a criminal offence for your landlord to evict you without following the correct legal procedure, see the Harassment and illegal eviction page for further details.

If your landlord has asked you to leave, you can get further information or advice from several organisations, see the Where can I get advice about my tenancy page.
