The first residents have started moving in to new homes built by Sefton Council’s ‘luxury’ housing company.
Sandway Homes, a wholly owned council company, was loaned over £8m by Sefton Council to build dozens of new homes across the borough after it was set up in 2018.
Concerns were raised by opposition councillors last year after the amount loaned to the company increased from the £5m originally set aside to over £8m.
