A commercial business with a social heart, our vision is to create opportunities that change lives through our drive, expertise, resources and passion.


Our dynamic approach has made us one of the region's leading providers of affordable homes for rent and sale. Developing new homes across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, and the surrounding area, we're committed to increasing the supply of affordable homes in the communities where they are needed most. Agility and innovation are central to our approach to adapting to change, and we'll continue to grow our business in today's fast-paced operating environment.
