The East London Community Land Trust is the first large-scale, urban, residential CLT in the whole of the United Kingdom. It is completely independent of political influence and is based soley upon the needs of it’s members and our local communities.
We have organised two proposed sites.
We have organised the architects and developers.
We have organised ourselves.
But we are up against organised money.
The 'Imagine Trust Fund' has been set up with the explicit goal of raising $500,000 (£300,000) over the next six months. With this money we can and will provide over 1,000 units of affordable housing in the most deprived boroughs of London. Affordable houses that will last forever.
We want proud donors. We welcome the challenge of having to raise such a large amount of money from a wide array of sources. We see it as an exercise in the spirit of our overall endeavour – bringing people and organisations together and declaring with pride a founding stake in a collective movement that will forever endower posterity.
Whoever you are. Wherever you are from. However much you can give. Join us.
ELCLT is independently funded by our members and donor organisations. We do not receive government money and instead rely upon the goodwill and commitment of our funders.
