London Mayor Sadiq Khan has invested £250,000 in a Homes for Londoners Community Housing Hub that will help individuals and groups in the capital build their own affordable homes. It will provide advice on how to obtain funding and unlock suitable land, as well as offering technical support for self-build projects. The hub is also intended to operate as an informationsharing base. It is the result of almost a year’s collaboration between City Hall and several community-led housing groups, during which key barriers to self-build were identified.
