Image of the town of IlfracombeWe want to create beautiful spaces, places and homes for Ilfracombe

The purpose of Ilfracombe Community Land Trust is to create affordable, secure homes for local people to rent with confidence. These become locally owned assets that can serve Ilfracombe community for good.

We are a community led group composed of local individuals.

In contrast to a property developer a Community Land Trust is a non-profit organisation run by local people to benefit the community they are part of.

You can play a role

Community Land Trusts depend on local individuals and groups getting involved and lending their opinions, skills and abilities – and everyone’s voice matters.
