About from company website

The Communities Housing Trust (CHT) takes a holistic and creative approach, working cooperatively with public and private stakeholders to actively tackle repopulation and find viable solutions for community development in less well-served areas. Since its inception in 1998, CHT has dedicated itself to supporting communities and identifying inequalities, completing over 120 community-led projects, often in remote rural areas, to provide more than 1,000 affordable homes and other amenities. They have pioneered various housing tenure, financial, and technical solutions, including the Rural Housing Burden, to empower communities to grow sustainably and transfer land and assets into community ownership.

CHT focuses on building community wealth for the long term by providing affordable homes, shops, services, business opportunities, and local skills training programs. They frequently collaborate with local, rural trades and utilize sustainable materials, contributing to net-zero ambitions and fostering a climate-friendly local circular economy. The organization also manages a stock of housing as private landlords and has experience delivering key worker and additional needs housing, with properties located in areas like Kinlochbervie, Gairloch, and Lochcarron.

They also provide specially adapted housing for individuals with mobility issues, such as in Invergarry and Applecross.
