Paul Challinor, regional managing director for Lovell in the North West, said: "Since the start of 2026, our team has demonstrated great strength and adaptability. Lovell’s North West operations played a significant role, particularly through major regeneration projects. In Moreton, Wirral, Lovell completed its first project with Onward Homes, handing over 66 affordable homes at Foxfield Park. "While the private housing market remains affected by economic uncertainty, demand from our public sector partners remains strong. "With a growing secured order book and a substantial preferred bidder pipeline, we remain confident in the medium- and long-term fundamentals of the housing market and in our ability to support the government’s ambitions for social and affordable housing across the UK."
