We've done it!
We've got a house! Filled it with students! Signed a long term lease!
Now comes the next chapter of SSHC and the hard work of matching reality to revolutionary vision.
Here is a pic of the gang enjoying a well-earned lunch break during our many houred AGM.

Now comes the next chapter of SSHC and the hard work of matching reality to revolutionary vision.

The big news is that students have moved in to the house and have begun paying rent and have started to do up the house. At the AGM we voted towards running the co-op by a committee, with founders Jamie, Rosie and Roy being co-opted on to the committee to offer their experience and support. We are definitely open to other being involved, we are thinking about a Shef Union officer perhaps?
No hanging around. During the AGM we planned monthly 'work days' where co-op members would come together to improve / work on the house. Here is an impromptu work session sorting out the front garden during lunch. Before a big, delicious bowl of hot soup - compliments to Charles and other helpers in the kitchen.
Later on the AGM wound up and rolled in to the official 'Launch Party'. Which featured a lovely plethora of hummus as well as some group screen printing efforts. It was lovely to meet so many of our neighbours! We hope to have more open parties in the future!
