Sovereign Network Group has appointed Galliford Try's Building division to a £750m framework to support delivery of more than 2,000 affordable homes a year across southern England.

Under the agreement, the contractor has secured places on the mid- and high-value bands in the London and East, and South regions, and on the high-value band in the West. Sovereign, a leading developing Registered Provider, created the framework to accelerate the delivery of new affordable housing.
