Canopy renovates empty properties with volunteers and homeless people, who become our tenants after creating good quality affordable homes for themselves. We bring derelict property back into use, house homeless families, train unemployed people in construction skills, create jobs, improve community cohesion and contribute to the regeneration of disadvantaged neighbourhoods.
Canopy is the winner of the United Nations World Habitat Award 2015/16 in partnership with Giroscope. 6 minute video here: https://youtu.be/-NFiOWFbC6Y
