The challenge

The housing market no longer works for the average household in the UK.

High quality, affordable housing is in short supply. There are ever increasing numbers of people living in unsuitable accommodation, in terms of location, size, and type. Home ownership is increasingly unaffordable, leaving many people in the private rental market with insecure tenancies. And, where development does take place, it often has little regard for the existing community.

Our approach

We invest in business models that seek to reverse this trend.

The Fund seeks to increase the stock of affordable, sustainable and multi-tenure homes in the UK.
