The 35,000-home landlord, formed via a merger between Yarlington and Radian housing associations last year, said the contractors selected will help build at least 10,000 high quality, sustainable homes over the next decade.

The framework agreement will also be available to members of Wayfarer, a consortium of housing associations, local authorities and charitable partners across the South of England.
