Large housing association names 11 partners for £350m construction framework
Abri housing association has announced a list of 11 contractors which it will partner with on a £350m construction framework.
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.
