Looking after your accommodation
You should:

- treat the property, furniture, fixtures and fittings with care
- respect your neighbours and the local community
- report repairs and maintenance issues as soon as possible
- allow access for inspections, repairs and safety checks when required
- tell your Temporary Accommodation Officer about any changes in your circumstances
