<p>The Government supports the community-led housebuilding sector – of which community
land trusts are an important part – through the annual £60 million Community Housing
Fund. The Fund is delivered outside London by Homes England and within London by the
Greater London Authority. Capital and revenue grants are available to community-based
groups wishing to take forward schemes to build locally affordable housing. Through
the Fund, the Government is also supporting a consortium of the major stakeholder
groups (including the National Community Land Trust Network) to develop a network
of technical advisors to support community-based groups though the process of developing
their housebuilding schemes.</p><p>The Community Housing Fund is currently scheduled
to close in March 2020. Decisions on funding for 2020-21 onwards are a matter for
the Spending Review, which will take place this year.</p>
