Edinburgh Student Housing Co-operative is one of a whole new wave of co-ops that are now popping up all over the UK. Numbers of members can be huge and the population more transient than mainstream housing co-ops. But for many students they can be inspirational spaces that make them want something more from housing in their adult lives.
