Constructing Futures

Constructing Futures Devon Ltd was a trading arm of Devon Communities Together. It was established to facilitate real life construction experience for local young people and provide new homes in Devon.

Designed to be a sustainable social purpose business, Constructing Futures purchased properties in need of major renovation, as well as new build sites, constructing quality homes to be sold on the open market.

Beginning in the Torbay and Teignbridge areas, Constructing Futures initially partnered with South Devon College, where students were given the opportunity to work on the construction and renovation of the properties under the project management of college staff, as an off campus “real site” work experience opportunity. The sites also supported the skills gap at higher levels through increasing the opportunities for Level 3 apprenticeship frameworks.

Although the initial phase of activity focused on South Devon, Constructing Futures’ geographical reach expanded to cover many other areas of Devon.
