Our trustee @volbikaite3, joined the Public Housing Manifesto event at Barbican Centre last night. An excellent discussion on the need for more support in delivering public housing that consider equity!
Housing is a right and it must be treated as so.
'It was so great to hear reflections about the need for more activism in this space, challenging status quo and really driving for community engagement in the full project delivery. @mellishaward talked about how CLTs are a brilliant model to deliver affordable housing.'

We have reached 200 #ForestCLT members!🎉
With 200 members strong 💪(and growing!) we believe we can be part of the solution to the current housing crisis.
Your continued support is crucial in delivering our mission and together we can make it a reality in #WalthamForest 🙏💚
Really good meeting today with housing minister @redditchrachel about a long term strategy to scale up #communityledhousing - delivery capacity, finance and policy reform to make commonplace the ability of communities to commission and own the homes they want. Crack team!
There are 5,400 community led homes waiting to be unblocked. £50m would unleash groups so it's hard to hear that £1.9bn has gone unspent.
Please support the campaign for more supportive #communityledhousing policies by writing to your MP. More info here > communitylandtrusts.org.uk/n…
