Increase housing supply for people in need
We’re determined to help relieve the pressure on affordability created by changes to household benefits and high cost private sector homes. Therefore, within our affordable programme, we aim to achieve 20% social rent, 50% affordable rent and 30% shared ownership. Additionally, we aim for 10% of our new homes across these tenures to be accessible to older residents.
We’ll generate more income by expanding the area we operate in and work with partners to build more houses for sale. In addition, we’ll reduce our carbon footprint by using sustainable materials and minimising our construction waste. By making the best use of technology, we’ll leave a legacy of well built homes with great design and style.
“With a clear commitment to providing more housing – we’ll make sure all our new homes are affordable and build new homes that reflect local needs.” Julie Porter, Executive Director of Development
