Building more homes and creating more opportunities

Growth for us means making a bigger, more positive impact for you, by building more homes, offering more choice, and reaching more people who need safe, affordable places to live.

Over the past year, we’ve made real progress. We’ve completed 400 new homes, helped 176 families take their first step into home ownership, and generated £22 million from property sales – money that goes straight back into improving services and building more affordable homes.

We’ve also added 112 existing homes to our portfolio and started work on 38 more. Growth isn’t just about new builds; it’s about making smart moves to increase the number of homes available in all kinds of ways.

Looking ahead, we’re on track to deliver over 500 new homes in the next 12 months, meet our Homes England pledge, and support 200 more families into home ownership. We’re also exploring new funding opportunities to keep the momentum going and continue investing in the future.

What growth means for you – now and in the future

Growth means we can invest more in the things that matter most, like repairs, safety, and technology, helping everything run more smoothly and giving us the stability to keep improving without cutting corners.

It also means we can offer more choice for future residents. Whether it’s affordable rent, shared ownership, or buying a home outright, we’re creating options to suit different needs and budgets. Every home we build or bring into use helps tackle the housing crisis and gives someone the chance of a fresh start.

So, when we grow, it’s not just about numbers – it’s about creating safer homes, better services, and brighter futures for you and your community.
