3 things you can do to make more plots available

Small, concrete actions that compound. Each one helps build the case for self-build in Hackney.

01

Join the self-build register

Joining the register records real demand for self-build in Hackney. Councils are obliged to grant enough permissions for serviced plots to meet that demand — every registration counts.

332 people have joined here since 2016. See the numbers →
02

Register interest in plots

Get notified when new plots come up in Hackney — and signal to landowners and the council that these plots matter, helping build momentum.

03

Connect with landowners

The creation of plots always starts with landowners. Small landowners are often the easiest to work with. Reach out to your network and get talking.
