🏛️ Championing co-operative housing in Parliament! 🏡🤝The Confederation of Co-operative Housing was delighted to take part in an All-Party Parliamentary Group on Mutuals meeting in the House of Commons to discuss the future of co-operative housing and the changes needed to help our sector grow.The meeting provided an important opportunity to highlight two key priorities for the sector:🔹 Co-operative tenure: Building on our work with the Co-operative Party and Andrew Pakes MP’s 10 Minute Rule Bill in April 2025, we discussed the Government’s stated willingness to legislate for a co-operative housing tenure — an important step towards giving co-operative housing greater recognition and support.🔹 Access to finance: We need appropriate and affordable funding mechanisms to enable housing co-operatives and community-led housing initiatives to flourish, alongside council housing and other forms of affordable housing.With over 220 members across the UK, growing international connections and record-breaking attendance at our recent Annual Conference, the co-operative housing movement has much to celebrate — but there is still more to do!We believe everyone should have the opportunity to benefit from housing that puts people, community and democratic control at its heart. With the right legislation, financing and political support, co-operative housing can play a greater role in delivering genuinely affordable, community-led homes across the UK.A big thank you to Gareth Thomas MP, Chair of the APPG on Mutuals, and everyone involved in the meeting for helping to keep co-operative housing on the parliamentary agenda.Together, we can build a stronger future for co-operative housing! 🏡💚 #coophousing ...
