We are a social enterprise and our aim is to make our neighbourhood a great place to live, work in, and visit.
We have transformed a largely derelict 13 acre site into a thriving mixed use neighbourhood by creating new co-operative homes; shops, galleries, restaurants, cafes and bars; a park and riverside walkway; sports facilities; by organising festivals and events; and by providing childcare, family support, training and employment opportunities.
Income is generated from a variety of sources including the hire of retail and catering spaces, exhibition, event and conference spaces." (https://coinstreet.org/who-we-are/about-us/)
