Latimer, the development arm of Clarion Housing Group, is dedicated to developing private homes within thriving, mixed-use communities. Their commitment to building sustainable and inclusive neighbourhoods is deeply rooted in the legacy of Clarion Housing Group’s founder, William Sutton.
The Legacy of Clarion Housing Group
The Clarion story began with William Sutton, a 19th-century entrepreneur who generously gifted his entire fortune—equivalent to £230 million today—to build affordable housing across major UK cities. Since then, Clarion Housing Group has been steadfastly delivering on Sutton’s vision, ensuring that the majority of homes built are for affordable tenures.
Building Sustainable Communities
While the primary focus remains on affordable housing, Latimer recognises the importance of developing homes for outright sale. This approach is crucial for creating mixed, sustainable communities and allows Latimer to reinvest profits from private sales back into building and maintaining more affordable homes.
