Locations span the Central Belt and further afield, including Glasgow, Edinburgh, Lanarkshire, Stirling, Fife, Dumfries & Galloway, East Lothian, West Dunbartonshire, and East Renfrewshire.

Alongside housing, the 2026 plans include private residential, care, and commercial projects to support broader community needs.
