Hello! I know it's short notice but I have just been alerted to this event which you may be interested in. Leeds Community Homes are one of the organisations we work with, and this will be a good intro into the concept of community-led housing (including co-housing) and an introduction to some of the existing housing projects in Yorkshire.

As last time, there is a first-come-first served offer of bed space at Mavis'. Food will be decided closer to the time when we know who is coming and dietary needs. First...
Good evening folks, TL:DR; Please click here to have a look through our presentation that was made at CLAN the Gathering I, giving an update on what has been done, what has been decided, and what we have left to do. Please note that we had lots of discussions around these slides so this isn't the full story, but it's a decent starter for those who couldn't make it. If anyone has any questions off the back of the presentation, please email us at CLANcohousing@gmail.com so that we can either...
