Organised by Falkirk Council, the free event will be held at Falkirk Stadium from 4pm to 7pm for those attending in person, while virtual attendees can join online from 4:30pm to 6:30pm.

The in-person session will feature a variety of stalls and networking offering landlords and letting agents the chance to engage with services like Home Energy Scotland, Safe Deposit Scotland, and the Homeless Prevention Team.

They can provide practical advice on everything from energy efficiency to rental support schemes.

The agenda includes key presentations including a presentation from John Blackwood of the Scottish Association of Landlords, and updates on the Local Heat and Energy Efficiency Strategy (LHEES) and from Falkirk Council’s Private Sector Housing team.

The virtual forum will focus solely on these presentations, allowing participants to gain the same valuable insights.

A key focus of the forum is to ensure landlords and letting agents are up to date with the latest regulations and support systems, helping them meet their legal and ethical responsibilities.

Attendees can also ask questions, connect with peers, and engage directly with Falkirk Council’s Housing Team.

Councillor Cecil Meiklejohn, leader of Falkirk Council, said: “This forum is an important opportunity for landlords and agents to stay informed and get practical support from many different agencies working in the sector.”

She added: “By keeping everyone up to date with regulations and available resources, we can work together to ensure a high standard of housing across Falkirk.”

Registration is required for both in-person and virtual attendance. For more information on the agenda or to sign up visit the website.
