DLUHC commissioned the London School of Economics and Political Science to carry out this piece of research to address an identified evidence gap around the link between loneliness and participation in community-led housing (cohousing in particular).Community-led housing is an umbrella term for a range of models that includes cohousing, community land trusts (CLTs), cooperatives, self-help and self-build housing.
