Fantastic news! We're thrilled to announce we have been successful in our application for £4.9 million of grant funding from Homes England, the government's housing and regeneration agency. This means that the grant will be used to help deliver 48 new social rent homes for our community!

Windrush House - proposed elevation

Where will these homes be?

21 refurbished and newly developed homes at Windrush House in Bourne End. Say goodbye to outdated spaces and hello to modern, comfortable living.

27 brand new flats at Huntercombe Park in Taplow which tenants are currently in the process of occupying following us taking ownership of these homes in the past few weeks.

Why is this important?

The demand for affordable housing, especially social rented housing in High Wycombe is high, and these new homes will make a real difference to families and individuals in need. With the rising cost of living, social rent provides much-needed stability and security.

Alan Wylde, Head of Development commented:

"Here at Red Kite, we’re committed to delivering new, high-quality, and affordable homes. Securing this grant from Homes England is a fantastic result as it enables us to expand our housing offerings, providing more homes for families within our community at social rent."
