Your tenancy agreement

You can view an online version of the tenancy agreement here: Newark and Sherwood District Council Tenancy Agreement. 

As a council tenant, you will have one of two types of tenancy:

  • introductory tenancy - typically a twelve month trial period
  • secure tenancy - typically granted to new council tenants who have successfully completed their introductory tenancy or tenants who transfer from an existing Newark and Sherwood District Council tenancy to another council tenancy

Find out more about tenancy types on the gov.uk website.

You can view more information about your rights as a District Council tenant on our your home, your tenancy webpage.
