New roles for community
This is a vision for a significant pioneering project with a range of social and environmental benefits:
- An eco-village for 200 people plus based on cohousing (self-contained dwellings plus shared facilities)
- An informal community with shared values, including sustainability, mutual support and wider service
- Visitor learning facilities for all aspects of sustainable living, an eco-lodge, spa and natural health centre
- A social-green enterprise park and public service projects for the local and wider communities
- A site with open space, community market garden and woodland
The documents on the right will give you more details about the concept, plans and values, and how to get involved.
The prime mover in the project is Alan Heeks who has already founded and led two land-based non-profit service projects.
