Park Home Owners JUSTICE Campaign
PHOJC
A name you can trust and the only
Park Homes Organisation to change two major laws
Founded in 2009, it continues to forge ahead and
push the boundaries to procure
CHANGE, JUSTICE & FREEDOM
for all park home residents.
Details of the question and the response from the Leader of the House of Commons are below
Nick Timothy (West Suffolk) (Con)
Around three years ago, two of my constituents, Paul and Joanne Snodden, bought a new home in a residential park. The park turned out to have no licence and now, unable to sell apart from to the park owner, they stand to lose £100,000. Park owners often impose punitive increases in pitch fees, and there are complaints of basic maintenance failures. Could we have a debate on how to toughen laws and enforcement on residential parks?
Lucy Powell I thank the hon. Gentleman for that important question on behalf of his constituents. I am sure that many colleagues across the House will share similar stories. That sounds like a good topic for a Westminster Hall or Adjournment debate. I am sure that he would have lots of support if he wanted to put in for that.

HONORARY MEMBERS
The PHOJC Team are pleased to announce and welcome Sebastian O’Kelly, CEO of LKP Leasehold Knowledge Partnership and Katie Kendrick, Founder of NLC National Leasehold Campaign who have both said “they are truly honoured to be Honorary Members of PHOJC.”.
The Leasehold Knowledge Partnership is a professional organisation that has the ear of Labour and Conservative MPs and the Leader of the Liberal Democrats. LKP is also the secretariat of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on leasehold and commonhold reform.
We walk an almost parallel path and many of you will be aware of how similar our situation is to that of the residents who live in leasehold accommodation.
In the words of Katie Kendrick of NLC “Whilst we are different there are many similarities, and we will continue to work together for the benefit of those we are trying to help, and I am so pleased that we can unite like this for justice.”
Sentiments that were echoed by Sebastian O’Kelly.
We have produced our Manifesto to outline what we believe to be the actions needed to improve the Park Home Industry Sector.
This has been sent to the Government and PHOJC will continue to lobby for these changes.
