Working in partnership with L&Q, Kier Places will also support residents and the local community with a range of social value commitments, such as employment, apprenticeships and skills opportunities. Kier Places will also work with the nine other selected contractors to support a number of local community projects.

Jamie McKechnie, Managing Director of Kier Places, said: "We're really proud to be a part of the Major Works Investment Programme with L&Q as we support them to make residents’ homes safer, more modern and more energy efficient.

"We have extensive experience improving people’s homes safely and we will engage with residents to ensure minimal disruption as we deliver high quality works that improve their homes and leave a lasting legacy in the local community."

Contract mobilisation has begun, with the commencement of services effective from 3 April 2023.
