In December 2025 we published our paper Housing Futures; A NNECL perspective on what works for accommodation. Since then, we have been speaking with our National Strategy Group and our Trustees to agree which strands of the learning we should take forward first.
During this members‑only webinar, we will share our focus on accommodation for the year ahead and our approach to improving data collection on care leavers living in private accommodation. We are delighted to be joined by, Ed Naylor from our Quality Mark awarded Liverpool John Moores University. Ed will share how LJMU work to ensure equitable accommodation choices for all incoming students, including those who are estranged or have care experience. The session will also explore recent developments such as the Renters’ Rights Act and outline the potential implications for this area of work.
We look forward to seeing you at the webinar.
Ed Naylor is Head of Accommodation and Student Living at Liverpool John Moores University and is responsible for managing relationships with LJMU’s private accommodation partners. He has worked at LJMU for three decades and was instrumental in setting up the current partnership model in 2004. LJMU makes an absolute guarantee of accommodation to all new students despite not owning a single bed-space.
