Doncaster has produced 6,200 new homes in the past year under their Housing Compact<\/h2>\n<p>The homes were governed by the Compact\u2019s new initiative, \u2018More New Homes\u2019 and has doubled the annual amount from three years ago.<\/p>\n<p>The group including; the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.local.gov.uk\/topics\/devolution\/combined-authorities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Combined Authority<\/a> (CA), the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lepnetwork.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Local Enterprise Partnership<\/a> (LEP) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/sheffieldcityregion.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SCR<\/a> Executive Team, hopes to create 7,000 new homes annually going forward.<\/p>\n<p>The SCR\u2019s Housing

authorities<\/a>, housing associations and ALMOS to be the first of its kind in the UK.<\/p>\n<p>Sir Edward Lister, Chair of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/homes-england\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Homes England<\/a>, the former <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/homes-and-communities-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Homes and Communities\u00a0Agency<\/a> attended a meeting of key housing figures and welcomed the \u2018More New Homes\u2019 initiative.<\/p>\n<p>The event shared the success of the City Region\u2019s Housing Fund, which will see the completion of 38 affordable homes by June 2019.<\/p>\n<p>At the meeting, Sir Edward said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to work together to identify more ways that Homes England can work with the\u00a0Sheffield City Region team to help them achieve their ambitious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/green-belt-increase-housing-targets\/29779\/\">housing targets<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We will work with the City Region to build on the collaborative working arrangements.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leading case studies from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.syha.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">South Yorkshire Housing Association<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rotherham.gov.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rotherham Council<\/a> were also presented to Sir Edward.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thehousingfund.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Housing Fund<\/a> will help to accelerate housing growth by picking up on public and private sector housing developments that have been left untouched.<\/p>\n<p>The project hopes to deliver 3,200 new homes and will create 2,000 new construction jobs.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting which gathered the region\u2019s top housing authorities, launched the first phase of the \u00a325million Dun Works affordable housing development in Shalesmoor, Sheffield and showed how the compact could produce a new way of working.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting also acts as an opportunity for the housing authorities to bid for funding on key affordable housing projects in the hope of enticing private investment.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, housing associations, house builders and other contractors have battled head to head to secure the funding.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div
