Join the Community Led Housing Alliance and help secure greater support for local action on housing Survey

Action on housing is critical for our communities to thrive and, across Scotland, local organisations are leading efforts to meet their communities' housing needs.

Communities have already delivered hundreds of homes, and there are many more projects in the pipeline. But this pipeline of future homes – and the benefits for communities and places which it represents – is at risk without sustained and increased support.

The Community Led Housing Alliance is a national network of organisations involved in community led housing. It provides a collective voice for the CLH sector, campaigns for better support from government and the public sector, and supports peer networking and information sharing between its members.

The Alliance has 80 members, including development trusts, social enterprises, community councils and others. It is coordinated by South of Scotland Community Housing in collaboration with Community Land Scotland, Development Trusts Association Scotland, Communities Housing Trust and Tighean Innse Gall, with the support of the Nationwide Foundation.

Membership of the Alliance is free and open to any community organisation in Scotland with an interest in housing, whatever stage you are at.

We know that this issue matters to you and encourage you to join the Alliance, help campaign for greater support and meet with other Alliance members to share know-how and learning.
