Dear Renting Evidence community, I hope you have had a good Easter break. I just wanted to provide a quick update on the latest activity within the Renting Evidence community. We have launched our new website www.rentingevidence.org.uk<http://www.rentingevidence.org.uk> , with a new blog, which members of Renting Evidence can contribute to. If you would like to contribute to the blog about your own research or if you would like to promote an event through the website, please also don’t hesitate to get in touch. We have a few plans for the website over the coming months, so please do keep an eye on this for further updates. We also have a new Twitter account, so please do give us a follow at @RentingEvidence<https://twitter.com/RentingEvidence>. Latest blog posts We have two new posts on the Renting Evidence blog: 1. Stories from lockdown: interviews show how poor housing quality made life even more tough by Professor Phil Brown: https://rentingevidence.org.uk/news/stories-from-lockdown-interviews-show-how-poor-housing-quality-made-life-even-more-tough/ 2.
