A grassroots, non-profit, volunteer driven Community Benefit Society
Similar to the Co-operative Bank and Co-operative Food shops, Llanelli Township is a legal Society owned and controlled by its Members.
The aim of our Society is to regenerate Llanelli town centre in the most democratic, sustainable and holistic way possible.
Step One
Buy Community Shares
Step Two
Purchase Building
Step Three
Vote on Development
Llanelli Township operates on the basis of one vote per Member, meaning rich or poor, older or younger, everybody is equal and nobody can buy extra influence.
We are modelled on the Community Land Trust and have a charitable asset lock in place; a legal guarantee that ensures any asset we purchase will forever remain in community use.
Collectively owning a building will give us the freedom to hold social value above profit. The freedom to consult, plan and deliver services that people in Llanelli actually want – not what developers and town planners think we want.
Community ownership is an excellent way to end the cycle of boom and bust economics.
