How do we deliver it?

Programmes are planned street by street, so each resident sees one coordinated set of works rather than several contractors on different dates.

Social homes in England must meet the Decent Homes Standard, enforced through the Regulator of Social Housing's Safety and Quality Standard. A reformed standard, confirmed in January 2026, must be met by 2035 at the latest.
