Community land trusts deliver community aspirations. They offer an affordable way to provide housing and locally-owned business and community buildings, using a new set of legal, financial and resource management tools that are relevant to a wide range of existing as well as new organisations
The 2010 national CLT conference will offer an opportunity to hear from leading policymakers and to learn from individuals and organisations at the cutting edge of practice.
It will demonstrate how CLTs can be a sustainable solution in a wide range of settings - encompassing housing, economic development, community empowerment, and co-operative development.
The purpose of this conference is to show how CLTs can be implemented in difficult economic times and provide long-term alternatives to the damaging vagaries of the housing and property markets. As well as keeping delegates informed about latest developments in policy and thinking, it will offer practical tools to help attendees take forward their own plans. The conference will also launch the new CLT trade body.
The 2010 conference will be the 4th national, annual CLT conference organised by New Start and Community Finance Solutions. It is the ‘must attend’ event for anyone with a professional interest or involvement with CLTs
