It facilitates Landlords Forums on a regular basis. These meetings are in partnership with the "National Landlords Association (NLA) and designed to allow Landlords to meet, discuss items of interest and have talks from experts in related fields (accountants, landlord associations, council officers, CORGI (Gas Safe), MP, Shelter etc).
