The Glass-House Community Led Design
The Glass-House is a registered charity that supports and encourages better working partnerships between communities and professionals who are working together to improve the quality of a neighbourhood. The Glass-House works nationally, offering design advice, training and project support to projects focussing on neighbourhoods, housing, public space, community buildings, play areas and facilities for young people.
