Shared Assets: Helping Communities Improve the Commons

Shared Assets is a not-for-profit company founded in December 2011 to:

  • Promote the potential for social enterprise and the voluntary and community sector to deliver urban and rural regeneration through the management of environmental assets such as woodlands, waterways and green spaces
  • Work with public, private and charitable owners of large environmental assets in order to help them create a ‘presumption in favour of community use’ and increase the size, range and quality of environmental resources available to communities.
  • Support the delivery of practical projects which create access to environmental assets and resources in order to enable communities to deliver sustainable development which meets their economic, social and environmental needs.

It includes supporting agricultural projects like: Bosavern Community Farm, a non-profit CSA farm.
