“We have had an active six months implementing our strategy of focusing on the UK Supported Housing Sector successfully delivering our first project which has been let on a 25-year full repairing and insuring lease with rents adjusted in line with inflation (‘CPI’) to a major charity.

We have also actively engaged with local authorities and, with an understanding of their unique requirements, are working with our strategic partners to develop tailored supported housing within a sustainable funding framework.

Our aim is to start delivery of this pipeline of projects in early 2018, which will create much needed homes for some of the most vulnerable in society and add to our portfolio of high yielding residential properties, and deliver secure long-term income.

To support our growth plans we will be seeking to raise further capital shortly.”
