Kingsway Quarter represents the kind of bold partnership working that can transform communities. By bringing forward new affordable homes on this prominent site, we have an opportunity to regenerate an important gateway into the town centre, and support the wider ambitions for Widnes.

We look forward to developing our proposals over the coming months and engaging with residents and stakeholders as our plans evolve. We're proud to be working with Halton Borough Council on a plan which could help reshape this part of the town for decades to come 👇🏻

Everyone deserves a home they can feel proud of. That's why we've introduced the Halton Homes Standard, setting out what customers can expect from their home and the services we provide.

From quality repairs and planned improvements to safety checks, energy efficiency and investment in homes, the standard helps ensure we're clear about our commitments and responsibilities.

In the latest edition of REACH, our customer magazine, find out what the Halton Homes Standard means for you and how it's helping us deliver safe, secure and comfortable homes.

A home is more than four walls. It's independence, choice, dignity and belonging.

This , we're proud to shine a spotlight on Crow Wood Gardens, our latest supported living development being delivered in partnership with Halton Borough Council (HBC).

The scheme will provide high-quality homes for adults with additional needs related to disabilities or health conditions, supporting residents to live as independently as possible while accessing the care they need.

Featuring self-contained apartments with communal spaces and 24/7 support, alongside purpose-built bungalows with live-in care, Crow Wood Gardens has been designed around independence, wellbeing and choice.

Because everyone deserves the right home, with the right support, at the right time. Homes are being allocated through HBC Adult social services, you can read more about Crow Wood Gardens here 👉https://www.haltonhousing.co.uk/about-us/our-developments/crow-wood-gardens
