Community Housing Scheme

Affordable Housing in Ceredigion is a key priority of the Corporate Strategy, the Wellbeing Plan, the Housing Strategy and the Local Development Plan and the Council deploys significant resources in creating and managing affordable housing.

We know from the latest Local Housing Market Assessment (2019) there is a need for 32% of all housing to be affordable. Background work for the LDP and the Housing Strategy (2023-2028) demonstrates that a greater variety of ‘affordable products’ are needed to meet the needs of those seeking different types of affordable home.

However, the greatest demand remains within the social rented unit sector which stands at 67% of all affordable housing need (LHMA 2019). ‘Community Housing’ seeks to support people to meet their affordable housing needs in their local communities by creating a pathway to home ownership.
