Our strategic plan

At Budget 2018, we published our five-
year Strategic Plan explaining the steps
we’ll take, working collaboratively with
the community and in partnership with
stakeholders, to do this.
Ifield has been identified in the Homes
England Strategic Plan as a priority for
investment.
Within the next few years, we will have
invested over £27 billion across our
programmes.
