Two brilliant housing minds in conversation @RoryHearneGaffs and @HughBren. Heartening and encouraging to hear their hopes for #CommunityLedHousing and #CommunityLandTrusts in Ireland through the work of
@SOA_ie, @CommonGroundCLH and our project here in Callan @nimble_spaces

[Workhouse Union @CallanWUnion]

@CualannO board + team visit to the Inclusive Neighbourhood sites at Westcourt and Callan Workhouse on Saturday.

O Cualann are a fantastic support and solid partners as we navigate through the complexity of #CommunityLedHousing and #CommunityLandTrusts.

Winter arrived today, but great to brave the cold winds and show Tom O’Donnell of @soa_irl around Callan to share future inclusive neighbourhood plans. #CommunityLedHousing is a long haul and we’re thankful to have the steady support and policy direction from SOA.

A very sad day indeed. A man who instinctively understood a good home is a foundation to a sense of personal dignity and inclusive community. 🙏🏾

[Nimble Spaces @nimble_spaces]

Patrick Lydon RIP. A true champion and pioneer of #CommunityLedHousing. We hope his friends, collaborators and colleagues can bring his Inclusive Neighourhood vision to fruition in Callan.

[Workhouse Union @CallanWUnion]

Our hearts are broken at the news that our dear collaborator, co-creator, mentor and vision maker Patrick Lydon passed away. Our profound thanks to him for our strong foundations. Our love and thoughts with Gladys and the Lydon family, and wider Camphill/KCAT community.

[Nimble Spaces @nimble_spaces]

Looking forward to taking part in #HousingOurselves2021 #CommunityLedHousing

Excellent article in today’s Irish Times:
Ireland needs to fully embrace community-led housing https://t.co/kpSVPaMzWV

[Eoin Ó Broin @EOBroin]

Imagine the positive impact of moving from focusing on the monetary value of land to focusing instead on the social value? https://t.co/3tC3LZSXca

[Emmett Scanlon @Emmett_Scanlon]

The social value of #housing when prioritised can ensure sustainable, life-long, good to get old in, housing where basic human needs are placed ahead of profit - @SOA_ie

'People living good lives together in affordable homes embedded in sustainable communities'. Great to see this comprehensive article on

[Nimble Spaces @nimble_spaces]

Bravo @SOA_ie - a significant step forward for Community-Led Housing and Land Trusts in Ireland!

[SOA_ie @SOA_ie]

Following amendments made to the Affordable Housing Bill last Thursday, #communityledhousing and #communitylandtrusts will be referenced in Irish legislation for the first time.

[Nimble Spaces @nimble_spaces]

Thank you @AnneRabbitte @noonan_malcolm
@JenMurnaneOConn @JMcGuinnessTD @DollardMaria for visiting and support and encouragement to make #CommunityLedHousing and #InclusiveNeighbourhoods in Callan a reality. Onwards and Upwards!

[Rosie Lynch @Rosie_Lynch]

Setting out a vision for #CommunityLedHousing and #InclusiveNeighbourhoods in Callan and sharing so much already achieved. @KCATArtsCentre was a show stopper with Brianna, Erin and Fintin leading the tour with Minister for Disabilities @AnneRabbitte and Carlow/Kilkenny TDs.

[Nimble Spaces @nimble_spaces]

Hear, hear 👏👏

[Malcolm Noonan @noonan_malcolm]
