As one of the oldest and largest not-for-profit housing associations in the UK, Peabody’s purpose is to help people flourish. Following our merger with Catalyst in April 2022, the Peabody Group is responsible for over 104,000 homes and 220,000 customers across London and the Home Counties. We have 20,000 care and support customers. Created 160 years ago to alleviate poverty in London through quality affordable housing, we remain committed to providing great homes and service, by making a positive difference to the communities we serve and by providing an inclusive and inspiring place to work. We provide homes to those who need them most, with social rented homes significantly below market level. In 2021/22, 74% of Peabody’s newly built homes were for affordable rents and shared ownership whilst at Catalyst, over 90% of all new homes built in the last year were affordable. Having a secure and affordable home has never been more important. The housing crisis continues to affect people all over the country with over one million households in England on a social housing waiting list. At the same time, the cost-of-living crisis has exacerbated many existing inequalities, especially for low-income Londoners like the many key workers who live in our homes. We remain deeply committed to providing genuinely affordable homes and this is reflected in the types of homes and supported accommodation schemes we own and manage. More than two thirds (72%) of our homes are let at social or affordable rent. We offer an award-winning Home Energy Advice Service which is open to all residents. In 2021/22, we supported 311 households as part of this service to help them reduce their energy use, saving them £13,375. Over the next two years, we will be offering up to 7,000 telephone advice sessions to help more households to reduce their energy costs. We also supported 726 households with fuel assistance vouchers, providing them much needed help in emergency situations.
