In September 2020, the government announced a £11.5bn Affordable Homes Programme 2021-26 (AHP), including funding for social rent, supported housing, and a renewed commitment to delivering homes using modern methods of construction (MMC) to deliver 180,000 new homes.

Key areas include:

  • 50% of homes at discounted rent, including affordable rent and social rent in areas of high affordability challenge.
  • 50% of affordable home ownership including a majority of shared ownership.
  • 10% of homes to provide supported housing.
  • 10% of homes in rural areas.
  • 25% of homes delivered through Strategic Partnerships using MMC.

In addition, the AHP 2021-26 capital funding guide includes a specialist housing section (opens new window) with more specific detail.

And, in London, funding is administered by the Greater London Authority via their Homes for Londoners programme (opens new window).
