Final reminder to take part in the housing needs survey 

2nd October 2025

With the deadline fast approaching, this is a final reminder for anyone who lives in Thame, or has a strong connection to the area, to take part in the Thame Community Land Trust’s (CLT) Housing Needs Survey.

Organised by the local charitable organisation, the survey aims to identify the need for affordable housing that the mainstream property market in Thame currently fails to meet. It’s open to locals in need of affordable homes, as well as those with longstanding ties to the community who may have been priced out.

This is the second survey run by Thame CLT, following the success of the first which helped secure the development of 31 affordable homes next to the Stones Close allotments, off Windmill Road. Construction on that scheme is now about to begin, with homes prioritised for local people.
It’s hoped that this latest survey will pave the way for further affordable housing provision in the area.

If you are interested or know someone else who might be, you can pick up a hard copy of the survey from Thame Town Hall or Thame Library, or it can be completed online here. The deadline for completing the survey is Sunday 5 October.

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Fiona Brown at Community First Oxfordshire [email protected] T: 01865 883488.
