Commonweal’s Peer Landlord project is set to shift up a gear, with great results and £1.5m in social investment, reports CEO Ashley Horsey.

26th March 2013 - A syndicate of social investors comprising the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund, Esmée Fairbairn Foundation and Trust for London have joined forces to back a project which will test a new shared housing model to help those who have suffered from homelessness and social exclusion.

Commonweal and St Mungo’s have jointly delivered the Chrysalis project since 2009. Here we present the findings of our evaluation of the project that helps women exit street prostitution.

Continued success of Commonweal’s flagship Re-Unite project now sees it running in five regions across England, supporting more and more women to reunite with their children when released from prison.

Caroline Tulloch, Investment Manager at Bridges Ventures, explains why this social investor has joined with others to acquire properties for the Peer Landlord project.

The evaluation report on Commonweal’s Chrysalis project has been published. The report produced by Prof. Roger Matthews and Helen Easton for the University of Kent confirms the positive impact the Chrysalis model and especially the Commonweal transitional flats has made to those women on the programme seeking to escape from a life of street based prostitution.

Here Helen Easton, Senior Research Fellow of the Crime Reduction and Community Safety Research Group at the London South Bank University, shares current findings from the Chrysalis Project.

Re-Unite, Commonweal’s flagship project, continues to go from strength to strength. Here we find out how it is being delivered in other parts of the UK.
