CLT Handbook - Local Advocacy

Publication date: 19 November 2021

Organisation: Community Land Trust Network

Community Land Trusts (CLTs) usually start with an informal group of like minded people who want to build or renovate homes in their community. Your CLT is much more likely to succeed if it’s able to develop and sustain the support of your council and local community. This handbook is designed to enable you to up-skill your board or steering committee so you can win over your council and other political leaders.
