“This grant funding is allowing us to provide over half of the homes on these sites at social rent, making these homes really affordable to households who move in.
“We are facing a housing crisis, and so we are delighted to be able to use this funding to continue to play our part in providing more homes and stronger communities.”
The homes, which are a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom properties are available both to rent and via shared ownership.
