🏠🚧 Did you know? The Welsh Government aimed to build 20,000 low-carbon social homes by next year, but they might fall short. 🌱 As of March 2025, they’ve delivered 13,399 homes and are on track to hit a maximum of 18,652 by the end of their term. That’s a 7% miss on their ambitious goal.
Housing Cabinet Secretary Jayne Bryant admits the target was challenging but proudly shares that the £2 billion investment in social housing is paying off. Despite setbacks like Covid-19, Brexit-related supply issues, and rising inflation, Wales has just recorded its highest number of affordable homes since 2007! 📈🏡
The government is focusing on not only new builds but also acquiring and refurbishing empty properties. This effort has created homes for those most in need, ensuring a secure roof over their heads.
Yes, the grand target might not be met just yet, but with dedication and a projected completion by 2026, Wales is on a path to a more just and prosperous future! 💪✨
