The social housing finance team at Winckworth Sherwood LLP is led by Lucy Grimwood. The group advises new investors in the sector, as well as for-profit registered providers, on the entire range of debt funding, including bank loans, development finance, private placements, bonds, and bespoke funding arrangements. Sustainable finance is a core element of the group’s practice, and a key focus for Grimwood especially.
