Acknowledgements

This ‘Policy and Practice’ publication explores the varieties and diversity in how local people have been engaging with housing and neighbourhood initiatives across the UK.

The source material has principally been gained from engagement and collaboration with a substantial range of local and community-centred practices over many years. A huge debt is acknowledged to them all and to the ongoing work of the regional and national bodies within the community-led housing sector. If the details provided on different forms of collaborative housing include some lengthy lists, this is deliberately to reflect on the richness now found within this sector that is too easily overlooked when only a brief example or two are given attention.

All website information was operational at the time the work was published, however flows of information are always dynamic and links will need to be checked accordingly. All tables and figures are from the author’s own work, except Figure 3.1, used under common licence.

My thanks are due to Policy Press for their patience in looking through the different versions of this work. The overall ideas started out as something far more extensive and ambitious but have been better served by the style required in the ‘Short’ series.

And a special thank you to Dinah and to John for their faith in me.
