Wild Peak Housing Co-operative

Wild Peak is a fully mutual housing co-operative run by its members according to co-operative principles. Every member holds a £1 share in the company, which is the limit of their liability, and gives all the members equal power and responsibility. By coming together and acting co-operatively in this way, the members gain access to quality rented accommodation they control, without the need for private landlords.

All tenants and prospective tenants are members of the co-op, and only co-op members can be tenants. As the housing co-op owns the property and is governed by its members, the tenants are effectively their own landlords. This direct management allows the co-op to be run in accordance with the members’ principles. At the core of the Wild Peak project is a commitment to a high level of environmental and ethical responsibility, and we have rules to ensure this.
