Quote from WAMCLT
“The local land trust is bringing RBWM councillors, officers, and local stakeholders the opportunity to understand how community land trusts and more specifically WAMCLT can bring this versatile method of housing to our Borough. We want to help the community make affordable, sustainable housing happen locally. Housing that will be kept by the community in perpetuity. We want that housing to still allow people to build a pot with which to place a deposit for a home later should they wish (a bit like rent to buy). We see every day the problems of no-fault evictions, extortionate rents and a burden for landlords who have unacceptable mortgage levels with the current inflation levels further deepening the housing crisis locally. We want to work with the council and our community to make this happen as it has already in Bristol, Cambridge, and Cornwall. We have high land prices. We have less housing than needed and we have a solution which by working together our community will be able to solve together.”
