The UK’s first purpose-built campus for returning military personnel, Wilton Hill in Salisbury, has been highly commended at the Planning & Placemaking Awards, in the Planning for Housing Growth category. It is the creation of Our Enterprise, working with Redrow Homes, and planning consultants Terence O’Rourke. Redrow will build 292 private homes alongside Our Enterprise’s community-based campus, containing an enterprise hub, care home, retail units, a creche and 44 homes, which will be available for veterans to rent for between six and 24 months whilst they receive business and skills training. The hub will offer training and help for veterans to launch their own businesses and will sit alongside facilities for up to 60 other local businesses. A new £60m development on the site of the former Royal Hospital Chelsea is being built by developer Lend Lease.
