Councils utilising this service may receive more than one package depending on individual or additional needs.<\/p>\n<p>These packages will not cost the council anything and will aim to strengthen council housebuilding programmes through specialist advice, training, workshops, tools, published guidance, and peer learning.<\/p>\n<p>The CHSF is being delivered in partnership with Homes England and provides targeted revenue funding to councils to support early-stage housing development activity.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2025 and 2026, the fund has helped 44 councils to develop and accelerate bids to the SAHP, assisting in the creation of around 11,500 homes.<\/p>\n<p>Read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/government-announces-21-8m-affordable-housing-fund-boost\/165913\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the CHSF here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Aiding skills and employment as well as finance<\/h3>\n<p>The Pathways to Planning programme is also seeing an expansion as part of Capacity to Build. The LGA has delivered the initial form of the programme to help councils recruit and retain recent graduates, and now the expansion will consider more specialist roles such as surveying and project management roles.<\/p>\n<p>This comes by supporting graduates with structured training and accreditation routes, building a pipeline of skilled staff. The two new pathways aim to recruit up to 150 graduates form 2026-2029, with onboarding to begin early next year.<\/p>\n<p>Eligible employers or interested graduates can find out more about the programme via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.local.gov.uk\/pathways-planning-council-info#:~:text=Pathways%20to%20Planning%20is%20a,and%20excellent%20value%20for%20money.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LGA website here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since taking position as prime minister, Andy Burnham has promised to bring \u201cthe biggest council house building programme since the post war period\u201d, as well as boosting youth employment with particular focus on the construction industry.<\/p>\n<p>Read what industry leaders had to say <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/industry-reacts-andy-burnhams-housing-plans\/163233\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">about this announcement here.<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The government has merged several programmes into Capacity to Build, designed to help councils with housebuilding and construction staff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":165919,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[908,276,1004,572,172713,660],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-165918","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-planning-construction-news","8":"tag-economy","9":"tag-government","10":"tag-homes-england","11":"tag-housebuilding","12":"tag-hr-skills-insight","13":"tag-skills-shortage"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Capacity to Build launched to invest in pipelines and skills<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The government has merged several programmes into Capacity to Build, designed to help councils with housebuilding and construction staff\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/capacity-to-build-launched-invest-pipelines-and-skills\/165918\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Capacity to Build launched to invest in pipelines and skills\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The government has merged several programmes into Capacity to Build, designed to help councils with housebuilding and construction staff\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/capacity-to-build-launched-invest-pipelines-and-skills\/165918\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
