No two days are the same. Today was an enjoyable, sunny, walk around Machynlleth to discuss potential sites with an aspiring Cohousing group #communityledhousing

Following Wales's first ever Community-Led Housing Conference last week, a member of the Communities Creating Homes team has written a blog on overcoming challenges and busting myths within the Community-Led Housing sector. 🏠 Read here:

Supporting community-led housing groups and the sector to grow does unfortunately require us to debunk some myths that others hold onto too tightly. Fortunately, Welsh planning policy is on our side in this case cwmpas.coop/latest/state...

Bridport Cohousing are among the winners of the 2025 Pineapples Awards with a Pineapple for Healthy Homes. It's fantastic to see a community-led cohousing development that is inspiring other developers across the UK win such a prize. Well done Bridport! thedeveloperlive.co.uk/places/winne...

Helen Davies launched Sunflower Lounge in Neath to create a safe space for young care leavers as they transition out of the care system, and for young people estranged from their families. Find out more here:

A long but brilliant day was had at Tai Pawb’s conference today. I’m grateful to our workshop participants for their contributions to the conversation about making community-led housing more inclusive. Feeling inspired by the fabulous key note speakers and becoming a starling (you had to be there)

Really happy to be at @taipawb.bsky.social annual conference today. We’re in dark times and the theme of “Rising Above” is exactly what we need to be talking about.

It was great to have ateb in the room for this event where they shared their experience of working with community land trusts in Pembrokeshire www.atebgroup.co.uk/communityled... #communityledhousing #peoplepowered

We are in London for our latest Simon Fraser event with @cwmpas.bsky.social @powertochange.org.uk and @tomchance.bsky.social from the Community Land Trust Network and @nationwidefdtn.bsky.social

Pleased that I took the time to join the live stream of the Simon Fraser Memorial Lecture this evening. So much passion for community ownership and the capacity it has to transform the community and safeguard it for future generations @cclhcymru.bsky.social #peoplepower #communityownership

Boring yet important picture. I’m not a natural presenter but it was a privilege to join Planed yesterday to lead a conversation about support for community led housing development. This slide - a reminder to not let finance (or lack of) stop you even starting @cclhcymru.bsky.social #peoplepowered

A call to action beautifully penned by my colleague Sahar and I couldn’t agree more with her words #everyactioncounts cwmpas.coop/latest/race-...

Great to see Welsh Government committing to looking again at how #communityledhousing is financed. Expanding the finance options available to aspiring community-led developers is essential to scaling up the sector here research.senedd.wales/research-art...

I enjoyed attending CRT’s strategy launch today. Doing the best for the former coalfields communities is a cause close to my heart. The community wealth building at the heart of their plans is inspiring. Find out more about CRTs aspirations here www.coalfields-regen.org.uk/latest-updat...

I don't know how anyone following this story can't be filled with sadness. When are we going to see more justice for women who die at the hands of their abusers or take their own life to escape them? How many abusers claim they're not monsters? www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

www.eventbrite.com/e/the-role-o... Looking forward to this event next month. There’s so much happening to keep conversations and action around community ownership going already in 2025 #peoplepowered #communityled

I’ve had a brilliant afternoon with Dream Home Swansea hosted by the potential residents. I’m so proud to be a part of this project #communityledhousing

Great set up for Dream Home Swansea’s special event. They’ll be sharing their vision for #communityled supported housing.

We had a great turn out in Machynlleth this evening. I was so happy to see the support for this wonderful group #communityledhousing

Today is the day for Dyfi CoHousing to share their early vision with the wider community #cohousing

Wondering what’s happening in #communityledhousing in Wales. Check out Gwyr Community Land Trust. They submitted their planning application this morning. A first of it’s kind development for Wales. www.gwyrcommunitylandtrust.org/live-project

I'm very much looking forward to this event in Machynlleth next week. Dyfi Cohousing are inviting the wider community to meet them and hear about their concept for new affordable housing with a difference in Machynlleth #CommunityLedHousing #Peoplepoweredhousing
