The DWP will pay a £10 Christmas Bonus in 2025 to millions on qualifying benefits, but Universal Credit claimants are excluded. The amount hasn't changed since 1972, losing over £100 in real value.

In today's blog post, we're discussing a question that's been on many renters' minds: can a landlord have a key to the bedroom that I am staying in? As tenants, we value our privacy and personal space, so it's important to know our rights in this matter. Generally speaking, landlords should not have access to your bedroom without your permission, unless it's for emergency or maintenance purposes. However, it's always best to check your lease agreement and local laws to understand the specifics of your situation. Remember, communication with your landlord is key to maintaining a good relationship and ensuring your rights are respected.
