RESI keynote speaker Robert Jenrick this week announced a new £8.6bn funding package for affordable homes. The secretary of state for housing, who will deliver the political keynote at RESI on 9 September, said the funding would deliver around 119,000 homes: 57,000 for ownership, 29,600 for social rent and 6,250 affordable rural homes. Jenrick said: "This £9bn funding is a landmark moment for our affordable homes programme and will ensure good-quality housing for all as we build back better after the pandemic. "This huge funding package will make the ambition of owning a home a reality for families by making it realistic and affordable."
