It’s undoubtedly an exciting time in the North West, with a new ‘level four’ devo deal for Merseyside announced on the back of the area’s new Investment Zone, which is seeing money allocated to support life sciences.? ? The growth of one of the UK’s most successful industries around one of our most iconic cities is cause for celebration – and new #devolution powers will help the North West to cement itself as a growing hub for innovation, while also giving local people and their leaders a greater say over the future of their region. ? At the same time, we know that growth can’t be sustained without access to good quality affordable housing.?With average rents reported to have risen by as much as 39 per cent in towns such as Bolton and Wigan, there’s a real need to ramp up housing delivery close to expanding cities like Manchester and Liverpool.?We need a stronger supply of new homes and supporting infrastructure if we’re to retain and attract the talent needed to power these growing industries.? ?
