Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMO)

We have contacted landlords of HMOs to offer information and advice to help keep their tenants safe and reduce the spread of COVID-19. Tenants in HMOs share facilities and live in close proximity to others.

Landlords are advised to:

• Reinforce the importance of good personal hygiene with their tenants including frequent hand washing, especially after they have been using communal areas.
• Request tenants clean all communal areas regularly including door handles, bannisters, kitchens and bathrooms.
