Georgeham Parish Community Land Trust
About Us
Georgeham Parish Community Land Trust Limited (“CLT”) was set up to help provide much needed housing that people in the Parish can afford. A Housing Needs Survey in 2019 conducted on behalf of Georgeham Parish Council evidenced that need.
The CLT has received grant funding and is working with a local landowner and a housing association (Aster Group) on a project to deliver 19 dwellings in Georgeham. The CLT is advised by Middlmarch Community Led Housing CIC who specialise in assisting CLTs to provde affordable housing for their local communities. A primary criteria when it comes to allocation of the homes will be having a local connection to the Parish. The proposed site is to the south of Newberry Road. The CLT is run by voluteers from the Parish and is a not for profit Community Benefit Society (registered with the Financial Conduct Authority under the Cooperative & Community Benefit Societies Act 2014).
