Co-operative Identity, Values, and Principles

Brighton Rock subscribes to the values and principles of the international co-operative movement. The Statement on the Co-operative Identity states that a co-operative is an "autonomous association of persons united voluntarily to meet their common economic, social and cultural needs and aspirations through a jointly owned and democratically-controlled enterprise."

Co-operative Housing in Brighton and Hove (CHIBAH)

Brighton Rock is a member of CHIBAH - a network of local co-operatives that promotes co-operative housing in Brighton and Hove.

CHIBAH's purpose is to house both individuals and families who are in need of low-rent, co-operatively managed housing. CHIBAH also undertakes a programme of permanent stock development.

CHIBAH currently has seven member housing co-operatives. CHIBAH works with representative bodies on the local and national scene, principally the Confederation of Co-operative Housing (CCH) and the Community Voluntary Sector Forum (CVSF).
