RUSS chair @____AnuragVerma read out a message from @tom_chance @CommLandTrusts: "What you have all achieved is extraordinary, but I wish it were ordinary. You've joined just over 100 CLTs that now own over 2,000 homes, community buildings, shops, farmland and other assets."

Thank you @vickyfoxcroft MP for celebrating with us. We all appreciate your continuing support, from the very early conversations to people moving in!.
It was great to attend the @RUSSLewisham event today celebrating the 36 new homes built at 12 Church Grove. RUSS have done amazing work alongside stakeholders like the GLA and Lewisham Council, and it’s fantastic to see sustainable community-led neighbourhoods in Lewisham North.

Huge thanks to @tomcopley and also to all the dedicated members of staff at the @LondonAssembly who have supported RUSS over many years. It was wonderful to celebrate with you.
It was a real pleasure to celebrate the 36 new community-led and part-self build homes built by @RUSSLewisham at Church Grove this afternoon. It’s taken 15 years and vast amounts of time, energy and dedication. I’m proud that the scheme received funding from the @MayorofLondon.
