Why do we need a Wyre Forest CLT?

THE CHALLENGES THAT WYRE FOREST DISTRICT FACES

Low income levels

Fuel poverty

Limited availability of suitable, genuinely affordable and attainable homes for entry level and down-sizers

Lack of quality, stable private rentals

Limited social housing stock

High proportion of homelessness

Low proportion of fully accessible homes

Lack of specialist, independent living homes

OUR STRATEGY TO MEET THE CHALLENGES

The CLT will hold land in trust for future generations, thus stripping out a layer of cost to own or rent a home.

We will continue to form multi-agency partnerships with relevant bodies with the aim to design and build affordable and attainable homes which meet local peoples specific and various needs.

We will use long-term, cost-efficient building methods and sustainable materials.

We will source funds from organisations, grants, loans, share offers, fundraising, gift-aiding and donations.
