Knowsley-based housing association, Livv Housing Group, is well on track to achieving its current three-year corporate plan target of delivering 1,000 new homes, with over 600 currently under construction across the Liverpool City Region and beyond.

Livv is currently active on 20 sites. The new homes under construction include 365 homes for affordable and social rent, 115 homes for rent to buy and 128 homes for shared ownership, which will be sold through the Livv Homes arm of the business.

These developments reflect Livv’s commitment to offering a diverse range of affordable housing solutions, and span multiple local authority areas: Knowsley, St Helens, Halton, Sefton, West Lancashire and Warrington.

Key projects include the £6.1m Berrywood regeneration scheme in Whiston, the £5.2m Parkside Place development in Warrington – Livv’s first in the area, and the £3.3m ‘road to zero carbon’ pilot scheme in Kirkby.

Livv is working with a range of delivery partners, from renowned housebuilders to specialist small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), having secured funding from Barclays, Santander, Homes England and the Liverpool City Region Brownfield Land Fund.

Yvonne Westhead-Fyles, Director of Development at Livv Housing Group, commented:

“Our priority is to tackle housing demand across the city region and our partner boroughs.

“We’re excited to deliver hundreds of new homes to suit a variety of needs, including houses, bungalows and apartments. But every home we build is more than just bricks and mortar – it’s an investment in people and place. Our projects provide secure, affordable housing while creating vibrant communities where individuals and families can thrive.

“Collaboration is key, and by working closely with our local and regional partners we’re making great progress in delivering much need-new homes for our customers that will have a lasting, positive impact.”
