Destination Dingle
Established in 2019 The Florrie Community Land Trust (CLT) exists to ensure that local people have a real and lasting stake in the future of their community.
Rooted in Dingle and part of the Liverpool CLT Collective, The Florrie CLT is not just about building homes, it’s about developing long-term, community-led solutions to housing needs, new workspaces, and creating local economic opportunities, keeping assets in community ownership and ensuring they benefit local people for generations to come.
The Vision:
The Florrie CLT scheme is focused on creating affordable homes and community-led spaces on three parcels of land adjacent to The Florrie and is supported by The Sovini Group, Liverpool City Council and Liverpool City Region Combine Authority.
Our current plans include:
- Delivery of 65 apartments and 32 houses through affordable tenures, a total of 97 new homes
- 700m2 of managed workspace and purpose-built space for community led enterprises
- Dedicated public courtyards, green open spaces and enhanced local connectivity with new cycle routes and public realm works
“I’m delighted for The Florrie that their proposal for affordable and social housing in the heart of the L8 community can now move to the final stage of our Community Led Housing process. Their business case was of a high quality and financially robust, and the relationship they have developed with The Sovini Housing Group underscores the level of professionalism they’ve applied to making this dream a reality. The final phase is to develop a planning application and then the transfer of the land and we look forward to having further positive dialogue with The Florrie over the coming months.”
The Florrie CLT is registered as a Community Benefit Society under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014, (8964) and is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) through the Mutuals Public Register.
