What are the benefits for local communities?

Existing residents can benefit from:

► New homes for you or your family

A Local Lettings Plan, if applicable, could provide opportunity for new generations to stay in the communities they grew up in.

A Local Lettings Plan would allow local residents to be prioritised for new homes built.

► Improvements to your estate

Through participation and co-design, existing residents will influence how further money is invested in wider improvements on their estate.

► Training and employment opportunities

Through the construction process there will be further opportunities for apprenticeships and training for local people in collaboration with contractors.

New residents can benefit from:

► More local jobs

The construction of new homes and estate improvements can stimulate the local economy, benefitting local businesses, and provide jobs through small site delivery on estates.
