Together we can build homes that work for people and communities

See what we do

Collaborative Housing can help your community meets its housing needs. We are hosted by Community First Oxfordshire.

We think houses made by the people who live in them create better homes and stronger communities

Collaborative Housing provides advice and support so people across the Thames Valley can plan, fund and build their own homes or work in partnership to do so.

Why do we need collaborative housing?

Positivity

Our ambitious aims, can-do attitude and ability to solve problems, allows us to achieve innovative and creative solutions to the housing crisis.

Affordability

New housing must meet the needs of everyone, with permanent affordability a priority not an afterthought.

People-powered

Collaborative housing is transparent, open and driven by the needs of people, making not just houses but cohesive, connected communities.

Sustainability

Houses that work with the environment not against it is our key belief, as they play a big role in people’s integration with the environment.
