Here are the details of some of the community land trusts CRHA has worked with:
Cornwall Community Land Trust
Historically, CRHA was involved in setting up Cornwall Community Land Trust as an independent organisation to help develop local community-based housing solutions. Cornwall Community Land Trust (CCLT) was established in 2007 as part of our Cornwall Community Land Trust Project. It is now a separate independent organisation with no direct links to CRHA.
St Goran Community Land Trust
St Goran Community Land Trust Ltd was established in 2013 by a group of local business people and retired professionals to redevelop two church rooms and three one-bedroom flats opposite St Goran Church to provide five modern one-bedroom flats at affordable rents for local people.
CRHA is currently providing management services to St Goran CLT.
St Minver CLT Limited
CRHA supported the establishment and development of St Minver CLT by providing advice and guidance through our Community Land Trust Project Manager.
