Taff Housing is building more than 300 new homes in Cardiff by 2026 as part of a multi-million-pound investment to address the shortage of affordable homes in the capital. The housing association, based in Canton, is investing over £30m to build new homes in the city, which include 350 new homes by 2026, as part of its five-year business plan.
The redevelopment will include the former Radiocraft building in Canton which will be demolished and replaced with 10 flats and a retail unit. The Welsh Government has contributed funding support for the new homes as part of its target to deliver 20,000 new low-carbon social rent homes.
Taff Housing owns and manages over 1,500 homes across the city. It has built and completed over 100 new homes since 2021 and currently has three further sites across the city under development. The organisation said it will have completed a further 76 homes in Riverside, Adamstown and Canton by the end of this year. The development of a further 70 new homes is also planned to commence later this year.
