A new case study featuring rural #communityledhousing & regeneration in Glentrool, Dumfries and Galloway - delivered by Glentrool and Bargrennan Community Trust and supported by partnership. Thanks to Becky & Bart at @open_aye for capturing the project and location beautifully!

This post is unavailable.

Glasgow friends - like many, my 19 year old son is urgently looking for a room/flat share in the city. His course has already started, so the clock is ticking! Any contacts / connections gratefully received. @StaplesVaughn


The team at @SoSCommHousing are extremely grateful to @NationwideFdtn and @scotgov for the opportunities this funding will provide to grow the #communityledhousing model across Southern Scotland. We look forward to collaborating nationally with @CHTScotland. @PaulMcLennan7

Earlier today, @scotgov announced that we're partnering with them to provide funding for two community-led housing organisations, @CHTScotland and @SoSCommHousing, to continue delivering affordable homes in Scotland.

Scotland’s first community-owned, passive-certified homes for affordable rent were created in Dumfries and Galloway by #NithValleyLeafTrust and @SoSCommHousing. Stunning & energy-efficient, it's a win-win for community and climate! #MyLandScotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✨ 📷Tom Manley

Congratulations to a local community that has put an empty building to great use, adding sustainable heating and insulation to a former hotel to create decent, affordable homes. It can be in the power of local people who understand their community to help meet its housing need.
