Final words… ‘Decent housing helps give people a sense of dignity and pride. We feel very lucky.’

‘We’d lived in this parish for over 40 years but wouldn’t have been able to stay if we hadn’t been offered this home. Now we can help out with our new grandson.’

‘These homes are playing an invaluable part in protecting the future of the village because local people whose families have lived in the area for generations were being squeezed out by wealthier newcomers.’
