We’ve had lots of visitors to our beautiful site and a few new joiners. We had our first design workshop with the architects recently and they are now working on initial drafts of site plans. There are lots of surveys going on and professionals being hired. We also spent a wonderful sunny evening at the site celebrating the project!

Events this weekend
There is a monthly brunch and tour this Sunday (27th Sept) and the 4th Sunday every month; please come along if you’d like to meet some members and see the site.

11am Brunch, Whale Tail Café, 78a Penny St, Lancaster, LA1 1XN
1.30pm tours of the site, Halton Mills*, Halton. Meet by the mill building.

We will also have a presence at 'Renewable Ripley’ on Saturday!

Joining
As we are busy with our design process any applications that we receive over the next few months will be processed at the January General Meeting. The deadline for these applications is 18 December.

Home Prices
Earlier applicants will pay less for their homes. The discounts on the home prices for early joiners have ended and there is a 10% supplement on the original target prices for households who join now. This means that the current ‘lock in’ values are between around £120k and £270k. These target prices are valid until we have 70% of our members (number TBC but at least 3 more; chosen based on the date of application). Please email if you want more details of the prices of the units or of our variable pricing policy.

More Information

Please see the website for more information, or email/phone if you can’t find it there.

Best wishes,

*Halton can be reached easily by bus or bike from Lancaster. To find the site please see this map for directions (but don't be confused as some more buildings have been built since then!). The marker is by the mill building. You reach it via Mill Lane heading east from the small bridge over the Lune and can recognise it by a large 'North West Engineering' sign.
