Jun 10 2009 by Jon Griffin, Birmingham Mail

MANSELL has struck an impressive century – after handing over the 100th new-build home as part of a major multi-million pound urban regeneration programme in Sandwell.

The Partnership Housing division of Mansell’s Stourbridge-based Western Region is carrying out the Sandwell Pathfinder PFI project work on behalf of Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and Riverside.

The 100th new-build house to be completed is that of tenant Diane Vincent and her three year-old son Andrew of Windsor Road, West Bromwich.

Mansell organised a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the house, and Andrew Vincent was presented with a garden swing from Mansell to mark the handover.

The Stourbridge-based group’s work on the Sandwell Pathfinder PFI scheme recently won three national silver Considerate Constructors Scheme awards.
