Places for People

We are Places for People. Community is who we are and what we do.

We are the UK's leading Social Enterprise. We change lives by creating and supporting thriving Communities.

Our business consists of complementary companies that are market leaders in homes and Communities, regeneration and development, investment management, property management and leisure.

We own or manage more than 245,000 properties that are the homes to around 500,000 Customers right across the UK.

We operate 100 leisure facilities that support the health and Wellbeing of our Customers with an average of 1.9m visits a month.

Using the power of partnership and working collaboratively, almost 11,600 Colleagues in more than 20 specialist companies create Communities and provide People with opportunities and choice in a way that few organisations can match.

What sets us apart from other organisations, is that beyond providing housing or leisure opportunities, we have a genuine commitment to improving people’s lives and Communities as a whole. Through our social impact work, we use our precious resources to make a real and lasting difference through schemes that offer support with employment, health and Wellbeing, finances, homelessness prevention and more. In 2022, our social impact work delivered £272 million in wellbeing value to Communities and £300 million in 2023.
