Local love, local jobs, local spend, local change.

Empty buildings are not ok, they need a little Nudge. Visit our spaces and discover what a difference a community can make.

Nudge Community Builders was set up in 2017 by local people living in Stonehouse, Plymouth. 

We had been volunteering in our community for over 10 years. We kick started the Union Street Party, created Union Corner and were inspired and asked by our community to do more about empty buildings.

Eight years on we have unlocked 25% of the empty buildings along Union Street and offered spaces for local people to grow.

Our most recent purchases include C103 and The Millennium Building - two buildings we know hold a place in peopleโ€™s hearts.
