12 MILLION PRIVATE RENTERS IN THE UK
DEMAND OUR FAIR SHARE THIS ELECTION
ABOUT
Renters Vote is an initiative led by ACORN – the union for the community. For the past five years, we’ve been organising renters across the UK.
Homeless, temporary housed and private renters – we are aiming to mobilise those most excluded by the voting system at the 2019 General Election.
Our voter registration drive has ended, but you can check out how the parties stack up against the Renter Manifesto.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP GET OUT THE VOTE!
Our voter registration drive has now ended.
ACORN hit the streets for our biggest ever get out the vote ground operation. We called upon our members and supporters to sign up to an ACORN voter registration team near them
If you are homeless or live in insecure housing, the chances are you’re missing from the electoral register. If you’re a private renter, there’s only a 50% chance you’ll turn out to vote.
If we want to end the housing crisis, we know this needs to change.
At ACORN, we never wait for change to happen – we make it for ourselves. That’s why in 2019, we hit the streets and linked-up with service providers with a mission to mobilising those traditionally underrepresented at the ballot box.
ACORN is a co-author of the Renters Manifesto.
Renters organisations from across England have come together to write a manifesto – calling on all parties to commit to radical change to fix the housing crisis.
