The @Yorspace & @loficoho team have been out and about in the sunshine a lot recently...
We enjoyed an inspirational open day where we got to experience #cohousing life and learn from our friends @ChacoLeeds
Thank you to all the residents who opened their homes to us!

Network members attended an Open Day at @ChacoLeeds recently - such an inspiring project and a model that is easily replicable too. Look our for the next Open Day...

Is it possible to build affordable housing that also meets high environmental and energy standards?
Great video from @FullyChargedShw all about Lune Walk, Lune Valley CLT's 20 home development that meets @PassivhausTrust standards, partnered with @SLHNews youtube.com/watch?v=BDoHWu98…

Congratulations @RUSSLewisham! This ambitious project is a beacon of quality CLT community engagement
There are now 1,875+ affordable CLT homes in England & Wales all completed in a system not designed for CLTs. What could we achieve with a rewired system? communitylandtrusts.org.uk/n…
It was an absolute joy to be with some of the new residents of @RUSSLewisham’s Church Grove scheme this afternoon as they received the keys to their new homes.
This community-led @MayorofLondon supported scheme of 36 homes includes a range of tenures, and self-build elements.

Absolutely fantastic news! Really pleased to see you moving forward with some homes! Power to the #Yorkshire @CommLandTrusts 💪
Fantastic news from @DalesClt who have started building works to convert a former Methodist Church into two affordable 2 bed homes!
Congratulations to them and their partners @NorthStarHG Housing Association on this huge milestone.

More big policy news!
Housing minister @Lee4NED has tabled amendments to exempt CLTs from leasehold enfranchisement - vitally protecting affordable CLT homes in perpetuity. A huge step for a campaign that the CLT Network has lobbied for since 2010! communitylandtrusts.org.uk/n…

We are thrilled that the Council are supporting our Community Share Issue, we have now passed our minimum target but you can still invest! @crowdfunderuk

If you're interested in cohousing in Sheffield - they're a lovely crowd of people moving in soon, and just one home left.

Shangri-lá is the 1st #housingcoop in Rio de Janeiro, #Brazil. This community was constructed in 1996 by its residents through self-management and collective action. The thriving community is home to families sharing a common vision of community living. ow.ly/tS5550QeHVM

NPPF update ushers in landmark planning policies for community-led developments!
These offer CLTs a unique way to get planning permission, as well as growing council recognition of and support for CLTs, particularly with support accessing small sites: communitylandtrusts.org.uk/n…

We have lost a national treasure. The breadth of his poetry, from the serious & profound to the silly & fun, meant that no one could leave an encounter with @BZephaniah without a deeper sense of the power & beauty of our language.

Director of Action on #EmptyHomes, Rebecca Moore, said: "It beggars belief that while children are growing up sharing beds in temporary accommodation, our nation has over a quarter of a million homes sitting empty. To say this is a national disgrace is a profound understatement.
