Exciting New Development Promises Affordable Housing and Community Growth

The Sovini Group, in collaboration with Sefton Council, has unveiled a groundbreaking project that marks the beginning of a transformative journey for the community. The ambitious initiative, known as Sefton 2030, is set to revitalize a disused brownfield site into a thriving residential area, delivering sustainable and affordable homes for local residents.

A Vision for Affordable Living

The first major development within this initiative takes place at the former Bootle High School site on Browns Lane, Netherton, where plans are underway to create over 400 high-quality affordable housing units. These properties will include various tenures, such as social housing and innovative options for low-cost home ownership like Shared Ownership and Rent to Buy. This landmark project signifies a vital step forward in addressing the housing needs of the local population.

Community Benefits and Economic Growth

Sefton Council leader Cllr Marion Atkinson emphasized the positive impact of this development, stating, “It’s great to see that Sefton 2030 will provide much needed new homes for local people to rent and buy." This initiative not only addresses the urgent need for housing but also aims to invigorate the local economy by creating jobs and training opportunities for residents.

Furthermore, the financial gains from land sales associated with this project are set to enhance services throughout the borough, ensuring that the benefits of this initiative extend widely across the community.
