Chesterfield Champions mark the launch of new venture

Chesterfield based, Starfish Group, joined together with colleagues from North West housing association, Magenta Living, to mark the launch of their new joint venture Hilbre Homes.

Over 120 colleagues, friends and family came together for fish and chips, ice cream and games on the beach at West Kirby, Wirral which included a walk over to Hilbre Island in the Wirral, to cement the new partnership and celebrate the launch.

Magenta Living is the largest registered housing provider in Wirral and not-for-profit organisation, owning and managing nearly 13,000 properties.  A significant local employer with around 500 staff, their vision is to provide homes and build communities where all can thrive and have already invested almost £200million in existing properties, with ambitious plans to build over 800 new homes for rent and sale over the next five years.

Starfish Commercial Limited are a high quality multi tenure house builder and community regeneration company based in Chesterfield. With its strong central management team, Starfish work with local staff, subcontractors and suppliers to build high quality homes whilst delivering wider sustainable objectives.

The partners of Hilbre Homes have almost identical company visions. Therefore, the Hilbre Homes mission to “build better homes and communities” aligns very well.

Hilbre Homes is a socially responsible new build company which will deliver cost-effective and sustainable homes for sale, market rent and affordable tenures and plans to build in excess of 500 homes in the next 5 years in the North West of England and North Wales, whilst undertaking the majority of administrative tasks from their office in Chesterfield.
