Housing crisis New home-building push to target small council sites
Bristol Post
|May 30, 2025
BRISTOL is to take part in a new social homes trial to help tackle the ongoing housing crisis.
The government scheme will make the most of smaller plots of council-owned land in urban areas. The Small Sites Aggregator is a new approach aimed towards making small council-owned sites more viable for developing social rent homes.
It is hoped that the scheme will help tackle the ongoing housing crisis and temporary accommodation challenges, with a priority to move households with children out of long-term managed homelessness.
The new scheme has been launched by the Ministry for Housing, Communities, and Local Government, with £3 million of government investment secured.
It draws on the concept developed by the Social Housing Initiative convened by Lloyds Banking Group and aims to bring key stakeholders together to identify and develop sites quickly.
