Connexus and Shropshire Homes have completed the first phase of a new affordable housing development in Orleton, Herefordshire. Alongside new homes available for social rent, shared ownership and open market purchase, Connexus has worked with Herefordshire Council and construction partner Shropshire Homes to deliver a car park to nearby Orleton Primary School.
The need for high-quality, affordable and energy-efficient housing is more pressing than ever, with no end in sight for the UK housing crisis. Connexus has committed to building 250 new homes in Shropshire and Herefordshire every year - but what factors help us decide where to build them?
Our focus has always been on delivering high-quality, affordable housing to communities across Herefordshire and Shropshire. We know that one size doesn't fit all, so we're building a mixture of affordable rent, Shared Ownership, and Independent Living homes to suit the needs of both our tenants and their communities.
All this week, we are joining in the discussions with the National Housing Federation’s Rural Housing Week to show our commitment to our rural community.
Now, more than ever, rural housing associations are committed to their communities and to working together to help them thrive.
