Places for People has announced a joint venture with off-site construction builder ilke Homes to deliver 750 modular units.

Swan Housing Association has received a £30 million loan to help to develop its Basildon regeneration schemes.

The Mayor of London is best placed to break down the barriers that prevent wider adoption of offsite manufacturing (OSM) for housing and should set up a London-specific OSM-led procurement framework, says a report.
