Membership of the OCLT.
Join us and help make the land trust a more mainstream alternative to providing community controlled affordable housing across the county. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who might want to live in such homes (and we home that the first few will be available within two or three years in the Botley area). We are also in need of support from people with relevant expertise in the following areas: housing, affordable housing, business planning, financial management and accountancy, green architecture. People who live near our first site in Botley and Dean Court might also like to join in order to influence and shape the project. Our approach might also be of interest to parish councils in need of affordable homes, land owners who are interested in supporting their local community possibly with a donation (or long lease) of land, local groups or individuals who may know of small packets of land that could be taken into community ownership and used for a local need (affordable homes, alotments, new leisure or work premises). We are also very interested in hearing from individuals with energy and a little time to try to make things happen.
