£350 Million Boost to Affordable Housing Construction
05. 06. 2025
In a targeted push to expand the supply of affordable housing, the government announced (February 2025) an additional £350 million for housing construction.
This includes £300 million for the Affordable Homes Programme and £50 million for the Local Authority Housing Fund, which will support the development of more than 250 council homes. Half of the homes funded under this new investment will be for social rent, emphasising areas with high demand and limited supply.
The funding responds to urgent calls from housing sector leaders to increase provision and improve delivery capacity.
At GLPG, we work with clients to ensure their projects are ready to meet this opportunity.
That means not just identifying the right sites but also understanding how to structure proposals that reflect what funders and local authorities are prioritising. We bring a delivery mindset that helps move schemes from concept to construction while ensuring the delivered homes reflect genuine community needs.
Our involvement spans strategic advice to hands-on delivery support. We are always focused on making our clients’ ambitions achievable and impactful.
