Delivering Affordable Sustainable Housing

Community Land Trust Fund home page

The Community Land Trust Fund was launched in October 2008 with the aim of assisting the development of community-led affordable housing projects; helping to build sustainable communities.

We provide funding and expert support to fledgling Community Land Trusts from initial feasibility – where communities are identifying a need and thinking about a solution – through to the construction of affordable homes.

About the fund
