Living

Home sweet home; many students during their time in Cardiff will choose to live in private rented accommodation, moving from halls into a house out in the community. Yet there is a lack of information about living in what too many of us is our own shared home.

Cardiff Living is a downloadable pack that contains useful information and practical tips about living in your rented accommodation. 

The PDF contains sections on:  

Things to do as soon as you move in, Ground rules and tips for shared living, Rubbish and Bin Days, Maintenance, Home Safety, Living in the property, Useful contacts among other sections.  

Two podcasts have been produced with advice please listen to them via the link at the top.

The poster ‘You’re in. Now what?’ has been produced to support Cardiff Living. Please take a note of the advice, print this out and display this in your property for everyone to see.   

Help make this a successful and stress free year by making yourself aware of issues relating to moving into the community and rented accommodation, by taking the time to read through this website you'll have the knowledge to make living away from home stress free and fun.

Please download and print the Cardiff Living Brochure and Poster from the left or from the downloads section at the top.
