VISIONARY DEVELOPMENT IN GREATER MANCHESTER
A first-of-its-kind regenerative neighbourhood is taking shape in Greater Manchester, uniting affordable homes, health-first design, community ownership, and climate resilience. Rooted in the region’s co-operative heritage, this development will show how housing can be beautiful, inclusive, and future-proof-proving a new model for the UK.
​
From September 2025 we move into land, design and consents for 100–400 homes (affordable purchase, affordable and social rent, market-rate and luxury), alongside on-site co-operative enterprises. All of this will sit within a community food forest and nature-recovery landscape where people and nature thrive together.
​
Construction is targeted to commence before the end of 2026, with a phased build programme that sets a blueprint for communities nationwide.
