Reflecting on a big year at Citizens UK, one of our top highlights has been working on the Cable Street affordable housing development. We’re so grateful for the countless community champions who have led this work 🙌 @LondonCLT
At a tough moment for housing, our Cable Street project in Shadwell is moving forward.
🏘️ London’s largest Community Land Trust
🌱 41 Passivhaus homes
🤝 Community-designed
Planning submission aimed for early 2026.
Thanks to @MayorofLondon@TfL@LDN_gov@tomcopley#housing
Huge congratulations to the organised leaders across @CitizensUK for championing many of these changes. The new Homelessness Strategy is promising, now let's move to put it in action!
We're pleased that the government’s Homelessness Strategy builds on the Child Poverty Strategy’s commitments to improve the lives of families in temporary accommodation.
These steps reflect recommendations from our report, ‘A long way from home’, published in May 2025. 🧵
“Partnership is Power” - We want to recognise the courage & leadership of Beth Brown & @AfsanaSalik on this pioneering cultural exchange between @CitizensUK & @NHSBartsHealth. #HEAL wouldn’t be possible with the openness of Directors @NHSBartsHealth & support @Barts_Charity
It’s a wrap! Assembly #4 since February takes us to over 1,000 leaders involved in 12-months of listening since the #GeneralElection on 4th July 2024 - looking forward to Assembly #5 on July 16th - Health Equity Action Leadership (HEAL) @NHSBartsHealth@Barts_Charity
