Angel Yard’s residents will own their own home just like in any street. Shared facilities such as the common house, outside space, corridors and lift will be owned and managed by Sussex Street Cohousing Community Interest Company, which will be governed by our residents.

We believe that everyone's opinion is important, so decisions are made, whenever possible, by group consensus, during regular meetings. This does take time, but also enables us to act in the interests of the community.

Put simply, we are a group of people building our own houses and building our community. If you join us, your involvement will start now, before the scheme is even built, and you will be encouraged to join in. We expect all future residents to take part in the meetings, decision-making and the compromises that are needed to guide the project towards completion. Along the way we'll get to know one another and learn a great deal about how cohousing is created, which will be helpful when we are managing everything after we move in.

Whilst there’s no expectation that residents commit to every group meal or attend all community meetings, each household should be willing to play an active role in the community, perhaps by helping to cook some shared meals or washing up afterwards, or by tending to the allotment or helping with admin. Inevitably there will be meetings to take part in to help run the community.

If you’re considering taking the leap to this alternative way of living, it may be useful to ask yourself some key questions: Can you afford to own your own home or pay a mortgage? Can you compromise with people who may have different views from yours? Can you live with people of different ages and from different backgrounds? Do you have any additional needs to discuss? Would you be comfortable to share some facilities and possessions? Can you commit the time required to living in a cohousing group?
