aims & objectives
MISSION STATEMENT
"Our mission is to empower communities by reclaiming land and creating people-focused spaces that prioritise community, creativity, and connection. We are committed to transforming underutilised spaces into vibrant, inclusive environments through collaboration, and sustainable design. By challenging conventional development models, we aim to create a fairer, more resilient ecosystem that authentically puts people before profit and promotes equality of opportunity.”
1. Reclaim and Transform Spaces:
Acquire and develop underused land into community-owned spaces that meet local needs, provide affordable housing, and foster community connections. Secure at least three key sites within the first five years.
2. Champion Community-Led Development:
Involve the community in all stages of the development process, ensuring that projects are driven by local voices and needs rather than profit, and are transparent and community-centered.
3. Deliver Affordable Housing:
Create accessible, long-term affordable housing options that address local needs and contribute to community stability and security.
4. Foster Creative, Regenerative and Sustainable Design:
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
5. Build Networks and Partnerships:
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
6. Promote CLTs as a Standard Model:
Advocate for CLTs as a preferred model for sustainable, community-led development and the management of community-owned assets, making them a trusted alternative to traditional developers.
7. Cultivate Arts and Culture:
Develop spaces that encourage creativity, arts, and cultural initiatives, positioning the CLT as a hub for local and global creative engagement.
8. Enhance Trust and Influence:
Build the CLT's reputation as a respected and transparent partner in the community, known for its commitment to genuine community benefit.
9. Create Equal Opportunities: `
Ensure that all projects are inclusive, providing accessible opportunities for all community members, and fostering a welcoming environment.
10. Further Agency and Replicability:
Share knowledge, processes, and resources to empower others to replicate our model, extending our impact and supporting the growth of community-led initiatives that align with our aims.
