We recognise that owning animals can offer significant benefits to their owners and to the wider community, so we do allow contract holders to keep pets in their homes. We encourage responsible pet ownership, and our policy is designed to reflect this.
The terms of Bron Afon’s contract holders are detailed in:
- Term 22 of Bron Afon’s Secure Converting Contract
- Term 19 of Bron Afon’s Secure Occupation Contract
These contracts have been drafted in compliance with the Renting Homes Wales Act (2016). As such, the Contract states that you must not keep an animal in your home without our prior written permission. Requests for permission must be made in writing before acquiring the animal and permission will not be unreasonably withheld.
The contract outlines the responsibilities of contract holder as a pet owner and what the consequences could be if there is nuisance, annoyance or disturbance caused their pets, or visitor’s pets.
