THE PEOPLE OF THE ROSELAND
Roseland CLT Limited is a charitable Community Land Trust. The Trust was formed in 2007 for the benefit of the Community of the Parish of St Just in Roseland and extended (in 2015, following the adoption of the Roseland Plan) to include the Parishes of Gerrans, Philleigh, Ruan Lanihorne and Veryan to carry out a number of objectives for the community, including:
- Providing houses and associated amenities for the people of the Roseland who are in need of an affordable home;
- Responding to housing need as established by Cornwall Council and by Surveys
- Finding suitable land throughout the Roseland;
- Making contact with individuals/groups who would work to find land, in co-ordination with CLT;
- Encouraging small teams to carry out work on local projects, as appropriate; and
- Liaising with landowners.
The Charity is committed to achieving a wide membership in order to enhance its accountability to the local community. It is controlled by a Board of Trustees drawn from and elected by the members.
