    <description>Through conversations with real residents, the Simple Life team, and our partners, The Simple Life Chat looks to readdress the balance in the way renting is perceived, showing what a positive and engaging experience it can be. Whether as a temporary pit-stop, a long-term lifestyle choice, or an opportunity to try something new, there’s more to renting than just a property or a landlord. Get under the skin of what it means to rent, the community it builds, and discover more along the way.</description>

      <description>At Simple Life, we’re on a mission to improve educational facilities for our communities and we believe there are a million ways to reach pupils. In today’s society, with a higher demand for self-awareness, developing outside of the classroom is of increasing importance. When it comes to delivering interactive and authentic experiences to young people, we know first- hand that opportunities provided by Non-profit organisations can have life-altering results.
In this episode we hear from ESG director for Simple Life, Niamh with three of our partners from educational charities to provide their insight on the things they don’t teach you in school.

      <title>The London Rental Market</title>
      <link>http://thesimplelifechat.libsyn.com/the-london-rental-market</link>
      <description>This week, we’re delving into the rental market around the capital, as we are joined on-location by some of the Simple Life London team.
Recording within one of the showhomes at Beam Park, we discuss how renting has – and is – changing in London, as the needs of those living in the city fluctuate to new ways of working.
From changing priorities, to the increase of Build to Rent as a viable renting option, London living isn’t just about the bright lights and high rises any more.

      <link>http://thesimplelifechat.libsyn.com/communicating-quality</link>
      <description>The conversation around renting is – slowly – starting to shift, with people coming to see it as a viable alternative lifestyle option, not second class to owning a home.
How Build to Rent providers speak to their customers is vital, showcasing not just the homes they provide, but everything that comes with having those four walls to surround you and your family.
Today’s episode looks at Simple Life’s new strategy for communicating these key messages, developed with agency Mindfield, to change perceptions.

      <description>For those looking to rent – whether by choice or in response to the housing market – finding a home you can feel secure in, from a landlord you can trust, can feel impossible.
But with the rise in Build to Rent providers giving more choice, there are businesses out there who are trying to make the search for a new home even easier, with verified views and one-stop-shops for quality listings.
We speak with two such companies – HomeViews and Love To Rent – to hear how they are using their services to empower renters to find their next move.

      <link>http://thesimplelifechat.libsyn.com/peace-of-mind-in-emergencies</link>
      <description>Finding peace of mind at home comes from more than the lock on your door or the neighbourhood that surrounds you. Having the confidence of what to do in an emergency situation can be the difference in someone surviving – from knowing how to spot a heart attack, to quick actions to deal with choking.
We’re honoured that this episode is led by representatives from St John Ambulance and the British Heart Foundation, who share their expertise so you’re armed to handle whatever may happen in your home.
