Wood Street Families and Homes Hub

Built

The Wood Street Families and Homes Hub is a transformative mixed-use development that integrates a families and homes hub, a small commercial space, and 67 affordable homes.

The Wood Street Families and Homes Hub (FHH) is a transformative mixed-use development on the site of the former Wood Street Library, now relocated to a nearby purpose-built new library. This landmark project integrates a high-quality council service hub, small commercial space, and 67 affordable homes, exemplifying a holistic approach to council-led regeneration. The aim of the FHH was to centralise access to important housing and family services like homelessness prevention and safeguarding.
