About us
We’re here to provide quality homes, work with communities to strengthen neighbourhoods and support people when they need it most.
Purpose
Few things are more important to someone than their home. It’s their refuge, the foundation for health and happiness.
Founded in 1862 by George Peabody to help Londoners in need, we’ve been providing safe, secure and comfortable homes for over 160 years.
We draw our inspiration from the thousands of families who’ve built their lives in our communities over the years. That’s why we’re committed to providing quality homes that don’t just serve people well today, but will stand strong for many generations to come.
Mission
We look after 109,000 homes across London and the home counties, plus the community centres, play areas and green spaces that bring these areas to life. Our job is to keep these places well-maintained and provide reliable landlord services.
We serve more than 220,000 people who live in these homes. They’re a mix of renters and homeowners. We provide a range of specialist homes and support services to another 26,000 people. We believe in building strong, trusting and respectful relationships with everyone in the Peabody community. That’s why we value the feedback and experiences residents share with us, using that to directly influence how we work and improve.
Every day, committed residents are creating positive changes in their neighbourhoods. We’re proud to work side by side with tenant groups and local organisations to help create stronger communities together.
When life gets challenging – whether it’s keeping up with bills, managing debt or finding work – we’re here to help find solutions. Often, we connect with other services to make sure people get the right support when they need it most.
Our values
These turn our purpose into reality. They’re shared by colleagues, residents and the Board and give us a focus on what matters most at Peabody.
