Galliford Try Partnerships has signed a deal with Homes England which will see it build more than 850 homes across the UK.

This national partnership will deliver housing across key sites in Redcar, Cheshire, Staffordshire and Dorset.

The homes will be constructed as part of Homes England’s initiative to build new housing at pace.

As preferred delivery partner, Galliford Try Partnerships will deliver:

  • 360 homes in Redcar
  • 330 homes in Sandymoor, Runcorn, including a 100 home extra-care development
  • 116 homes in Cannock
  • 60 homes in Blandford Forum

Stephen Teagle (pictured), Chief Executive of Galliford Try Partnerships, said: “We are delighted with our extension of work in partnership with Homes England to accelerate the delivery of much-needed new homes in these regions.

“We share Homes England’s ambition to help more people access better homes and look forward to playing our part in making this a reality for communities in Redcar, Runcorn, Cannock and Blandford Forum.”

Work will begin on the projects immediately with the first planning applications due to be submitted this month and the first homes due to complete in spring 2020.

The projects will deliver a mixture of housing tenures including open market housing, affordable rent, shared ownership, private rented sector and an extra-care development.
