Threlkeld Housing Association near Keswick

• Threlkeld Housing Association is actually a
  small independent local trust, rather than a
  Registered Social Landlord, which owns a
  development of 14 homes. The homes were built in
  1994 along with separate workshops on land
  donated by ARC Ltd. The local manager wanted to
  contribute something to the community due to the
  company ending local quarrying operations on the
  site. The company also provided a full time
  manager for one year to help the community set
  the scheme up and get it running. The properties
  are all shared ownership jointly owned by the
  occupants and the trust with the aim of providing
  permanent locally affordable homes. Six of the
  original purchasers are still resident, and there
  have been no repossessions. All the re-sales have
  gone through satisfactorily to people meeting the
  local occupancy requirements so that the scheme
  has been very successful. The Trust is aware that
  the share offered for sale has crept up and may
  have become too high to remain affordable to
  local people, and is therefore considering how
  the affordability might be improved for the
  future.
