The Government has announced a major expansion of its £7 billion 'affordable' homes programme, designed to increase the number of 'affordable' housing.

Lovell managing director Jonathan Goring said: "The success of our funding bid reflects Lovell's strong record of helping people into home ownership through the delivery of high-quality homes available through a range of tenures.

"We're delighted to be able to help even more aspiring homeowners across the UK on to the property ladder using this newly-secured funding. Our regional teams look forward to starting construction work on these much-needed new homes."
