SUMMARY:Invest in the Rising Sun Co-op
DESCRIPTION:Rising Sun Housing Co-operative was formed by a group of artists who need investment to finalise the purchase of the former pub they live and work in from the landlord who recently put it on the market. \nThe building is used as both a home and workspace. It contains facilities such as a recording studio\, rehearsal space\, intimate venue and design studio which members of the community are allowed to use free of charge. On top of this\, it provides crucial and increasingly rare affordable housing and a space for young creatives to build networks and meet other like-minded people. In short\, The Rising Sun is a hub for all manner of creative outputs and a staple part of the local art and music culture. \nWe have helped to commission financial modelling and business planning\, which has helped the co-op secure mortgages in principle\, and prepare their loan stock offer. We have been directly involved in negotiating with the landowner and agents during to get their offer accepted\, and bringing solicitors on board\, and there has also been a little architectural input on internal reconfigurations to make better use of the space\, and improve the building’s environmental performance. \nThey are now looking for investors to raise £230\,000 with attractive rates of interest\, or they will lose the space for good. \n

SUMMARY:New Collective Ownership
DESCRIPTION:Home ownership exists today as the most secure\, yet least accessible form of housing tenure. For some it also represents a major barrier to collective living\, the benefits of which have become increasingly clear in the wake of the Covid19 pandemic. \nThis has led to a growing number of Londoners looking for alternative ways to live together\, take control of their housing security\, ensure affordability for others\, and in doing so\, challenge the very idea of what it means to own a home. \nFrom new legal structures to innovative spatial and social concepts\, new models of collective ownership are emerging with the aim of enabling people to come together and pool their resources to collectively own their homes. \nJoin us for an evening of presentations and discussion with community led housing groups who are testing these models in London today. \nThis event is open to anyone interested in learning and sharing ideas about collective home ownership\, whether interested individuals\, existing groups or housing practitioners. \n  \nSPEAKERS\n– Jacob Stringer\, Quaggy MHOS  \n– Scott Bowley\, Rising Sun Housing Co-op \n– representatives from Surge Co-operative \n– representatives from Sycamore Housing \n  \nWatch event here

SUMMARY:Community Land Trust Cafe No. 2
DESCRIPTION:An online event which will take place on Wednesday 31 March 2021\, from 7pm-8.30pm\, and speaker presentations will be followed by audience Q+As. \nSpeakers and projects will include: \nRosie Lynch and Patrick Lydon of Nimble Spaces/Inclusive Neighbourhoods \nIn 2012\, a group of people in and around the Camphill Community in Callan began to work towards a new model for ‘housing the social’. They aimed to imagine the best possible pattern for housing in a new era of rights and social inclusion. The initial stage of the project was a creative design collaboration involving a variety of future residents. Focusing on how to offer privacy and self-determination for people with support needs in an interdependent social context\, the group worked on an Irish model in which people of different ages\, needs for support\, and income levels can live in a shared neighbourhood. \nBeyond housing\, the initiative also engages with environmental\, land use\, social enterprise and cultural initiatives that will be enabled by the community in a Threefold Community Asset Trust (TCAT). \nHannah Emery-Wright of London CLT \nLondon CLT is a citywide CLT created in 2007. After substantial campaigning and negotiations\, the first 23 CLT homes were built as part of a larger development at the St Clements Hospital site\, in Tower Hamlets. The CLT provides genuinely affordable homes\, closing the gap between “people qualifying for council property and the people who can afford to buy their own home”. The organisation targets households earning equivalent to the area median income and allocates their home through an innovative process. \nPlacing citizen involvement at the heart of their organisation\, it has gathered more than 2\,500 members over the years. Each member holds a £1 share in the Community Benefit Society. \nAnnabel Pidgeon and Mike Staples of SOSCH\, supporting The Midsteeple Quarter\, Dumfries\, Scotland \nInitiated in 2018\, The Midsteeple Quarter (MSQ) project aims to entirely revitalise the urban centre of Dumfries through community ownership. The CLT seeks to address the issues of town centre decline and absentee ownership. Its strategy is based on the acquisition and redevelopment of all properties within an urban neighbourhood according to a master plan to provide mixed-use community facilities\, business space and housing. \nIts target population is families\, young professionals and working people\, but the project is also promoting intergenerational living. Membership in MSQ is open to the whole town of Dumfries and currently stands at 400 members.

SUMMARY:Unlocking the Potential of Small Sites
DESCRIPTION:This breakfast talk\, hosted by New London Architecture\, will explore the current and potential role of small sites in the delivery of new homes and affordable housing. \nTo deliver the quantity of housing Londoners need\, sites of varying scale and complexity need to be developed. The specificity of small sites means they are often overlooked by larger developers\, calling for the expertise of SME developers and architects to overcome the challenges of problematic sites\, with further delays and complications found in the compliance with the planning system. \nRecent research from Pocket Living and Lichfields analyses how small sites can play a more meaningful role in housing delivery and considers the journey of small site developments through planning and the constraints and challenges they encounter. \nThis Breakfast Talk explores the role of small sites in the delivery of new homes and affordable housing. What are the constraints and challenges? How can we unlock land for housing more efficiently and streamline the process for SME developers in order to speed up the delivery of quality homes? \nSpeakers: \nPeter Murray\nCurator-in-Chief\, NLA \nNick Cuff\nChief Commercial Officer\, Pocket Living \nRemi Connolly-Taylor\nFounder and Director\, REMI·C·T Studio \nJonathan Martin\nDirector of Inward Investment\, London Borough of Waltham Forest

SUMMARY:People\, Place and Community report launch
DESCRIPTION:FoL’s People\, Place and Community project has been radically shaped by the Covid-19 pandemic. It led us to go beyond the physical built environment and to look in detail about how digital communities can have a huge impact on people’s connection to their local area and neighbours.   \nThis webinar will look at the best approaches the built environment sector in London can take to encourage communities to thrive and explore the three main insights from the report: \n– Good quality design: Quality design plays a critical role in our experience of connection. How can the sector ensure that this is achieved for all members of the community?\n– Community ecosystems: Rather than imposing new approaches and ideas\, how can we identify\, foster and develop existing community ecosystems and help them thrive?\n– Inclusive digital connectivity: What role does the built environment sector have to play in overcoming the digital divide? \nThis event is open to all and encourages attendees to bring their comments\, ideas and questions which we will pick up on in the audience Q&A. \n\nConfirmed Speakers:  \nPhil Askew\, Director of Landscape and Placemaking\, Peabody\nHarriet Boamah\, Director\, F.U.S.E Youth Project\nClaire Fram\, Senior Product Manager\, Arup\nFabrizio Matillana\, Principal Urban Designer\, LB Enfield\nKaye Stout\, Partner\, Pollard Thomas Edwards\nDavinia Venton\, Partnerships DIrector\, Countryside

SUMMARY:Resident Empowered Council Housing
