A new approach to housing Cohousing

What is cohousing?

Cohousing is when a group of people come together to create a small housing community, based on a shared desire to live in a supportive and connected neighbourhood. People have their own home, but share community spaces, facilities and resources.

Residents manage the scheme, do a wide range of activities together, and may even regularly eat meals together. It's a great way to make friends, connect with people and foster a supportive way of life.

These communities can be anywhere, either by transforming existing places or creating new ones. They can also be for specific groups, like older people, women or the LGBTQ+ community.
