Four University of Birmingham students awarded Commonweal's Jane Slowey Memorial Bursary for 2025/26 have conducted their final-year dissertation projects investigating current housing-related issues.

Sofie Mason and Diana Jervis-Read, founders of Off West End Plays & Playwrights, highlight the challenges facing young underprivileged writers, and the charity's plans to establish a network of 'Omnihosts' offering affordable rooms for writers to rent across London.

Commonweal Housing has published its latest Annual Review, detailing a busy twelve months investigating and piloting housing solutions to social injustice.

The Commonweal team is delighted that our Vice-Chair, Russ Edwards, successfully completed the 2026 London Marathon, raising funds for the NSPCC, the UK's leading children's charity.
