Great Places has been named Developer of the Year at the inaugural Manchester Property Awards.

The award recognises the regional impact of our work across all ten Greater Manchester districts, delivering a range of homes and tenures with customers at the heart. Our approach brings together affordability, sustainability, placemaking and regeneration to help shape town centres, support priority growth areas and create places where communities can thrive.

Over the past two years, we’ve started over 1,800 new homes and completed over 1,500, helping more people access affordable homes. Recent developments including Hatters Yard in Stockport, Downley Drive in Manchester, Kemp Heaton Avenue in Bury and Foxdenton in Oldham showcase the breadth of our development programme and our commitment to delivering high-quality affordable homes and thriving communities across Greater Manchester.

Helen Spencer, our Executive Director of Growth, said:

I’m really proud to see Great Places recognised in this way.

This award recognises the difference we’re making across all ten Greater Manchester districts. Working with our partners, we’re delivering different types of homes across a range of affordable tenures and supporting regeneration in town centres and priority growth areas.

It’s about more than the number of homes we build. It’s about putting customers at the heart of high quality, sustainable neighbourhoods, and creating places where communities can thrive. Thank you to the colleagues and partners helping us make that lasting difference across the region.

The Manchester Property Awards celebrate the organisations, projects and people helping to shape Greater Manchester’s property sector.
