Cohousing Exeter is a newly forming group, looking for people interested in neighbourly living and active aging with some shared spaces, alongside individual homes.
It is the first project we’re working on, using our Build Belonging methodology, which we’ve been developing and refining for the past couple of years.
Unlike traditional approaches to cohousing which start with a group, we’re starting with an enabling developer and a clear site, and acting as facilitators to convene a group of future residents around the project, and working with them to form a community and shape decisions. Our approach works across the physical, social, and organisational aspects of community led housing to create mutually supportive cultures in any new housing development, addressing isolation, raising well-being and quality of life.
Cohousing Exeter will focus on active aging. If you’re interested in living in Exeter with community baked into the foundations, or know someone who might be, we are seeking interest to attend future talks and meetings.
We are also exploring possibilities with developers in London, and would love to discuss any opportunities at an early stage.
