Wessex Community Assets is a not-for-profit community benefit society which provides support for community-led affordable housing, community renewables and local food initiatives. WCA coordinates the www.raisetheroof.info project - a partnership working with farmers, architects and builders seeking to bring natural materials into the construction and retrofitting of housing. WCA has pioneered the use of community shares to raise funds and the holding of land in community land trusts to support housing, farming and workspace.
