2025 in review - looking ahead to 2026 A big year for community-led housing in London, with progress across six boroughs and national recognition for completed homes. Read our members’ update 👇 mailchi.mp/londonclt/20... #AffordableHousing #CommunityLedHousing

The community has come too far — and achieved too much — to give up now. This is a moment for London’s institutions to align and lead. @london.gov.uk #CommunityPower #LondonHousing #AffordableHousing

Stepping away now would mean losing homes London urgently needs, on land that has sat empty for decades. The costs cited are marginal. The cost of doing nothing is not. @london.gov.uk #AffordableHomes #PublicLand

This is public land. Land that already belongs to Londoners. Using it for permanently affordable housing is one of the most direct ways to address the housing crisis. #PublicValue #HousingCrisis @london.gov.uk

The Cable Street project in Shadwell would turn land that’s been publicly owned and unused for over 50 years into 41 genuinely affordable homes. Homes shaped with the local community, delivering long-term public benefit. #CommunityLedHousing #PublicLand @london.gov.uk

London has a choice: 41 affordable homes — or another missed opportunity. A fully affordable, community-led housing scheme on public land is now at risk. 🧵👇 #AffordableHousing #LondonHousing @london.gov.uk

Reflecting on a big year at Citizens UK, one of our top highlights has been working on the Cable Street affordable housing development. We’re so grateful for the countless community champions who have led this work 🙌 @londonclt.bsky.social

We're grateful that @london.gov.uk & @tomcopley.bsky.social have been backing this project from the very start. We're excited to keep working with the GLA, TfL, the local MP, the council & the community to get this underway in 2026 & bring more affordable homes to Londoners. @londonclt.bsky.social

Great progress on Cable Street, Shadwell at a tough time for housing. 🏘️London’s largest Community Land Trust: 🌱41 community-designed Passivhaus homes. Planning aimed for early 2026. Thanks @london.gov.uk @tomcopley.bsky.social TFL @levittbernstein.bsky.social #AffordableHousing #CommunityLed

Lewisham has a proud history of community-led housing. With Citizens House, London CLT continues that legacy, creating affordable homes for local people. Imagine if every borough backed two such projects. Thanks: 🏡 RUSS (Church Grove) 🏗️ Archio Ltd 🌆 Future of London #AffordableHousing #LondonCLT
