Northstowe Neighbours

Once complete, Northstowe is set to become one of the UK’s largest new towns. Located 20 minutes from Cambridge City, over the next two decades the former RAF airfield site will be transformed into a thriving town of 10,000 new homes, schools, parks and facilities to accommodate an anticipated community of 25,000 people.

Commissioned by Homes England and Northstowe Arts, the film sought to capture the lives, hopes and aspirations of the first cohort of residents setting up home in the first phase of the development. Shares the vibrant spirit of the town and stories of some of the people shaping its identity, the film highlights the strong sense of community and belonging that is already defining the town in the early years of development.
