We manage around 4,000 homes in 14 boroughs across London. The majority of these are in Hackney, followed by Islington, Hammersmith & Fulham, Southwark and Kensington & Chelsea. Our properties range from 13-floor tower blocks, modern estates such as the Nightingale Estate, traditional houses in residential streets and large Victorian estates, on which we undertake a continuous reinvestment programme to bring them up to the standards of our modern homes. We also have sheltered schemes and women’s hostels.
