Edinburgh Student Housing Cooperative Ltd was founded in January 2014, and we moved into our current premises at 28 & 34 Wright’s Houses in August 2014 (you can find out more about this process here). The Co-op is owned and run democratically by its 106 student residents. This means all members are expected to contribute to the community and help with the day-to-day responsibilities of managing residential property. Have a look here to find out more about how we run things!
