A new entrant to the region’s housing market, FNH said it would seek to secure public sector grant funding to deliver homes and would work with the Sheffield city combined authority and the nine local authorities in the region.

FNH initially plans to build 300 homes a year, but said it soon hoped to increase this to 500.
