Part 3: Recovering Abandoned Premises in England Section 61: Methods for giving notices under section 57 and 59
Section 61 deals with the methods of service for notice given under sections 57 and 59 (a notice bringing a tenancy to an end and the first two warning notices). Such notices may be given by delivering the notice to the tenant or a named occupier or the deposit payer in person. Where such a notice is not delivered in person, it must be given by leaving it at, or sending it to, the premises to which the tenancy relates; leaving it at, or sending it to, every other postal address in the UK that the tenant or named occupier has given the landlord as a contact address for giving notices; and sending it to every email address that the tenant or named occupier gave the landlord as a contact email address for giving notices. It must also be sent, in the case of the tenant, care of any person who has agreed with the landlord to guarantee the performance of the tenancy.
