What is a Co-Housing Community? Cohousing communities are intentional communities, created and run by their residents. Each household has a self-contained, private home as well as shared community space. Residents come together to manage their community, share activities and socialise together. Cohousing is a way of resolving the isolation many people experience today, recreating the neighbourly support of the past. Cohousing communities aim to live together in a sustainable way. This multi-generational cohousing community started in 2019 and is made up of 42 houses and apartments, with around 90 community members (adults and children) who have chosen to live in a more neighbourly way. There is plenty going on, with a wide variety of social and other activities. Member participation is fundamental to the cohousing community. Shared facilities: - The common house with a large hall, kitchen, playroom, adult-only sitting room, sauna and co-working space, teenager lounge, and outdoor pizza oven. - Secure cycle storage just steps away from the back door. - Three guest bedrooms – available for family and friends at £7.00 a night. - A laundry room - A large community garden with an area for growing food managed by an allotment group, produce used mainly for community meals, a small copse, a wildflower meadow, play area and terrace. We also keep chickens and welcome hedgehog visitors. Although we are an urban community, it benefits from a beautiful range of green space. - A workshop gives access to a range of tools. No charge for use. - A small gym with a rowing machine and weights. No charge for use. - A not-for-profit membership-based community shop with items from Infinity Foods. - Individual access to a community-run sitewide high speed broadband connection. This service can replace the need for an commercial internet service provider. - This is all supported by monthly community workdays, community meetings, working groups and residents volunteering to take on tasks as part of living in the community.
