Join award-winning journalist and author Vicky Spratt and academic Matt Ingleby, co-director of the Rent Cultures Network, for an in-conversation on the range of issues related to rental domesticity.

The rented home is at the forefront of political, economic and legal debate. Runaway rental inflation is one of the most unsustainable aspects of the current economy. Its human fallout, seen in preventable child deaths due to landlordly negligence, is becoming increasingly hard to ignore.

Significant changes to the legal frameworks surrounding rental homes are underway. Meanwhile, more radical responses to improving the quality of rental domesticity, such as rent control and mass housing re-socialisation, are more mainstream within policy think tank discourse than they were a decade ago.

'Living for Rent' is a conversation about a range of issues relating to rental domesticity today between award-winning housing journalist and author of best-selling Tenants, Vicky Spratt, and the academic and co-director of Rent Cultures Network, Dr Matthew Ingleby (Queen Mary University of London).
