We have a proven model to increase rural social housing. This great blog by Alison Ward explains all, looking at Devon where it is firing on all cylinders. Now we just need to fix the early stage £££ gap... looking at @matthewpennycookmp.bsky.social! www.communitylandtrusts.org.uk/news-and-eve...

This new Community-led Housing Alliance marks a pivotal moment in reshaping housing policy for the better, and we're proud to fund and support this major step forward👏 As long-term funders of community-led housing, we truly believe in its power to deliver more decent, affordable homes at scale.

A really important package, and I particularly welcome the explicit references to community led housing, rural and regeneration - there can be no "one size fit all" approach to the varied housing pressures across England, so flexibility is key. But also...

Attending the @local.gov.uk conference this week? Don't miss out on our event to find out how you can support community-led homes in your area. We'll be exploring how local govt can diversify housing production and utilise community-assets to boost the delivery of affordable homes. Details👇

Our Programme Manager for Backing Community-Led Housing @garyhfdtn.bsky.social has enjoyed being at @cwmpas.bsky.social's conference today. So many inspiring stories coming from the community-led housing space in Wales. CLH has a vitally important role to play in tackling the UK housing crisis.

She says that Community-Led Housing initiatives would not have made the progress they have without the invaluable support of Cwmpas.

Jayne Bryant MS, Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government, joins the conference to give a keynote speech on how Community-Led Housing could and should contribute to the delivery of affordable homes. @jbryantcymru.bsky.social

"Co-operatives are about more than just homes for the people that live there, they are the root to training, education, decision making and genuine power." Great to hear @andrewpakes.bsky.social raise the profile of co-operative housing in parliament yesterday and in @politicshome.bsky.social 👇

What an amazing team day! We stepped away from the office on Tuesday to enjoy the outdoors, share some good food, connect as a team and celebrate the incredible progress we’ve made – thanks in no small part to our amazing partners. We're excited for the year ahead. Here’s to the next 12 months!☀️🌳

Thanks also to @matthewpennycookmp.bsky.social for honouring this significant investment. We look forward to carrying on our conversations with the housing minister to secure a longer-term funding solution for the wider community-led housing sector.

The news we've been waiting for! As long-time supporters of the community-led housing sector, we know how vital this funding is for CLH projects to develop their schemes. Well done to those in the sector (inc @tomchance.bsky.social) for their efforts.
