The goal of the Right to Build Task Force is to help local authorities, landowners, developers, community groups, mortgage providers, housing associations and other organisations to bring forward deliverable strategies and successful projects which can unlock the growing demand for Custom and Self Build housing in the UK.

The Right to Build Task Force was established by the National Custom and Self Build Association (NaCSBA), with the support of the Nationwide Foundation and the UK Government.

We urgently need to build many more homes, both for sale and for rent: Homes that people can afford and that they want to live in.

There are millions of people across the UK who would like the opportunity to commission a home to fit their own needs and lifestyle. If this huge demand were unlocked, it would lead to a significant rise in the number of new homes built each year and could lead to a permanent increase in housebuilding.

The ‘Right to Build’ requires all councils in England to provide for sufficient serviced plots with planning permission to meet local demand for Custom and Self Build housing. Most councils now have local demand registers and more than 33,000 people across England have registered so far, with more registering daily. Many are introducing local initiatives to meet local demand, whether through local plans, proposals for garden towns and villages, working with Custom Build developers and community groups or by directly releasing land for serviced building plots.

The Task Force offers bespoke Custom and Self Build housing support, advice and training.
