The Government’s housing agency has unveiled a five-year plan setting out how it aims to deliver more good quality, affordable homes.

Homes England says ‘sustainability, decency and good design’ will be at the heart of the strategic plan which is backed by £16bn of Government money.

It says that ‘working with its partners, the agency can deliver a revitalised built environment across England that serves the needs of all communities.’

The plan commits Homes England to ‘working in a more place-based way – tailoring its powers, funding, expertise and technical capacity to the specific challenges faced in different parts of England.

‘This will build on Homes England’s strategic place partnership with Greater Manchester, and a stream of similar partnerships the agency will be establishing over the following months, including in the West Midlands.’

Peter Freeman, chair of Homes England, said: ‘Over the next five years, we will continue to work with housebuilders of all shapes and sizes to boost housing supply.

‘But we will also focus on the places those homes sit in, working ever more closely with local leaders and other partners to build communities as well as housing, be it through housing-led, mixed-use regeneration or new settlements.’
