The London Tenants Federation (LTF) is an umbrella organisation bringing together London's borough wide council tenant federations and organisations. It aims to strengthen its member organisations through: sharing and exchanging information, making collective London wide responses to consultation and at times campaigning together. It aims to provide a strong voice for London's council tenants. The London Tenants Federation (LTF) has representation on the Mayors Housing Forum and on the National Tenants Voice.

LTF is keen to make links with tenants of other tenures and with other community and voluntary sector organisations in London. LTF is a member of London Civic Forum and the London Voluntary Sector Council. It is financed through London Council's grants committee.

If you would like to join our extended email address to receive LTF email bulletins, newsletters, briefings and invitations to our open meetings and conferences please email us on info@londontenants.org

Challenging the Stereotypes

LTF video 'Challenging the Stereotypes' (link below) was made by a young filmmaker who lives on a London council estate and was edited by a representative of one of the LTF member federations.

The video contains comments from London tenants including those of the late Michael Beverley who was previously LTF secretary and an LTF delegate on the Mayors' Housing Forum.

Please email us with your comments on the video and / or links to other videos about council tenants and council housing.

London Tenants Federation 2010 Conference

LTF LONDON PLAN (Examination in Public) CONFERENCE Saturday 19th June 10.00am - 4.15pm Directory of Social Change, 24 Stephenson Way, London NW1

The London Tenants Federation has been invited to attend debate at the Examination in Public (EiP) of the draft replacement London Plan, which is being held between late June and mid October this year (with a break in August). Whilst EiP's tend to be dominated by government, local, regional and central, landlords and developers; community and voluntary sector organisations can successfully make their voices heard and even change some items when they are well prepared. Our conference is part of our preparation work, aimed at bringing together evidence from the grass-roots level across London. That evidence will used by LTF members in their written statements and their direct engagenement at the EiP.

LTF has been invited to take part in debate on the following policy areas: the Olympic Games and their legacy, inner London, opportunity and intensification areas, areas of regeneration, addressing health inequalities, housing targets, optimising housing potential (housing density), quality of design and housing developments, children and young people's play and infrastructure facilities, mixed and balanced communities, affordable housing targets, existing housing, building lifetime neighbourhoods and the location and design of tall and large buildings.
