The contract was awarded to Lovell, which has a strong track record in housing refurbishment, following a competitive tendering process. Lovell’s specialist resident liaison team will work closely with residents throughout the improvement work.

Lovell will offer a number of apprenticeships giving local people the chance to gain construction qualifications working on the home improvement scheme. Lovell regional director Nigel Yates said: "We are delighted to be using our expertise in housing refurbishment to work with residents and First Choice Homes Oldham to help deliver the second phase of this important housing improvement programme. In addition to transforming homes, we are committed to creating a lasting legacy through the creation of local job and training opportunities and by offering help and support for community organisations and groups locally."
