Generation Rent saved after tenants plug funding gap
A PRIVATE renters’ rights campaign has been saved by tenants as it announced yesterday that individual donations had already raised enough to keep the group afloat.
Generation Rent was left without funding earlier this month when its original sponsor Nationwide Foundation unexpectedly withdrew its £750,000 support.
But British renters flocked to help the charity, crowdfunding over £11,000 in a fortnight — enough to keep the campaign running as a volunteering organisation.
