Women in a Community Self-Build Co-Operative in Lewisham

A selection of pictures from a study of 8 women engaged in a ‘Greenstreet’ project of self-built homes as part of a small community in South London. Of the eight women studied, three were single mothers, most were unemployed and one or two were in families. All have experienced squats or have been living in poor-standard, short-term housing. All will be allocated homes with very low rent by the housing association for which the homes are being built.
