Early, we know, but it will soon be getting to the point in the year when people start talking about finding next year's house 🏡

In collaboration with Leeds University Union, Leeds Beckett SU, Leeds Conservatoire Students' Union & Leeds Trinity University, we're running a series of house hunting advice webinars over the coming weeks, so if you're unsure about where to start or just need a little guidance before you begin searching, we're here to help!

We'll cover everything, including:

✔️ Student neighbourhoods,
✔️ Understanding contracts,
✔️ How to choose a landlord,
✔️ Avoiding common pitfalls.

Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned renter, we've got the advice you need to make house hunting stress-free. Plus, it's free! 🎉 Don't miss out—secure your spot now: https://bit.ly/4gLTNmW 🙌

At Unipol, we have partnered with the universities, Students' Unions, Leeds Property Association, and Leeds City Council to encourage students to sustainably clear out belongings they no longer need when moving out: ‘Barter it, Bank it, Sort it’. By following these steps, the amount of unwanted belongings left on the streets of Leeds over changeover period should be lessened.

As part of the scheme, additional refuse collections and street cleaning resources have been travelling around the Headingley, Hyde Park and Woodhouse areas to remove anything off the streets that has unfortunately already been dumped.

There is a list of resources such as selling platforms, local donation banks, and guides on how to use bins correctly on our website: https://bit.ly/3Vwcpiq
