Affordable Housing on Church Land

Community land trusts, housing co-operatives, cohousing communities and other community led approaches can also be a good way to provide affordable housing. Sometimes they work in partnership with housing associations, but they can also work alone and are eligible for government grants. You can find out more about these options on the Community Led Homes website, and read the case studies about Keswick and Shadwell for examples.

There is a network of enabler hubs across England that can help you find local organisations, or start your own. They can provide access to accredited advisers. You can find your local hub on this webpage.
