Wolverhampton Homes, which manages more than 21,000 homes on behalf of the City of Wolverhampton Council, has won a national award for ‘Neighbourhood Transformation’ for its work on the Heath Town regeneration project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The UK Housing Awards, organised by the Chartered Institute of Housing and Inside Housing magazine, recognises achievement in the social housing sector, showcasing projects and initiatives which are enhancing service delivery for customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Heath Town regeneration programme is a \u00a3120m project to enhance the lives of more than 2500 residents. Wolverhampton Homes has worked in partnership with the City of Wolverhampton Council to remove above-ground walkways and enhance homes, communal areas and the external environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Residents have benefitted from new energy-efficient cladding, enhanced fire safety measures including sprinklers, CCTV and improved lighting in communal areas, and full fibre connectivity to every home. The project has reduced the average time to let, and improved occupancy rates. Additionally, customers have seen lower energy bills and reported improved feelings of safety and community cohesion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This award comes shortly after the project was recognised by the National Building and Construction Awards, with a silver award for Project of the Year in November 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wolverhampton Homes is delivering the project with contractor United Living Group as part of a Strategic Construction Partnership which has created more than 200 jobs and training opportunities for local people and launched a number of initiatives to develop social value for communities in Wolverhampton.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
