Major Funding Boost For Community-Led Home Building

£6m is coming the way of the Community Led Homes programme in England, as MHCLG looks to commit the sum over a two-year period with payment of the full allocation in 2019/20 dependent on the “full and appropriate” defrayal of the £2m allocation in 2018/19. And MHCLG also stipulates this must be in line with the project as defined in the funding agreement and the satisfactory delivery of the project against project targets. As announced by housing Minister Kit Malthouse, funding of up to £10,000 will be provided to groups to cover start-up costs such as legal fees, and a further £3.5 million will be made available to provide technical advice and support to guide communities through the process of house building.
