In 2020, AHBs delivered 3,312 homes for households on social housing waiting lists. This was a significant achievement in difficult circumstances, with the construction sector closed for seven weeks during the first lockdown in 2020. A small number of social housing sites remained open as essential sites which the ICSH welcomed. The delivery of 3,312 homes was a result of the determination of AHBs to respond to the ongoing crisis in housing supply and affordability. The AHB sector now manages over 43,000 homes with approximately 10% added to the stock each year.
