Councillor and council meeting pages
You might have a problem accessing information about councillors and council meetings. We're working to fix it and are sorry for any inconvenience.
Find out about the different types of community-led housing and which might be right for your group.
Most community-led housing developments:
These provide affordable homes for local people in need by gaining land and holding it as a community asset.
Groups of people who provide and collectively manage affordable homes for themselves; as tenants or shared owners.
People who come together to provide self-contained, private homes for themselves; but manage their scheme together and share activities, often in a communal space.
These provide social housing tenants with collective responsibility for managing and maintaining their homes, through an agreement with a council or housing association.
Small, community-based organisations bringing empty properties back into use, often without mainstream funding, with construction training and support being very important.
Local people building homes for themselves, through external support and managing the process collectively.
