LEAP is now managing a property in Central Lincoln, purchased and renovated by the Sincil Community Land Trust (SCLT).
The SCLT is a resident-led organisation that has worked tirelessly to revitalise the Sincil Bank area. Their previous initiatives have included a range of community projects and the creation of pocket parks.
The property, their first, was acquired through grant funding from the City of Lincoln Council, alongside a loan provided by Investors in Lincoln.
Heidi Walton, LEAP CEO, had this to say about the property and the work of the SCLT:
“It has been a real pleasure to support the Sincil Community Land Trust from the very beginning, and I am incredibly proud of what has been achieved through the purchase and refurbishment of their first property."
“We are delighted to have agreed a lease to manage the home and to play a part in supporting vulnerable families within the community. This project shows the positive impact that strong local partnerships can have in bringing empty properties back into use and creating much-needed affordable housing.”
