PCHA provides homes for more than 10,000
households across 13 London boroughs and in the south east. The
team also provide support services for vulnerable residents and
work closely with local authority partners to ensure fair access to
homes for those people most in need. As the founding member of the

manages more than 25,000 homes for other landlords including local
authorties, housing associations, primary care and NHS trusts,
developers and private investors. The temporary housing division
specialises in the provision of temporary accomodation, managing
more than 6,000 privately leased homes around London and the Home
Counties. Pathmeads Property Services is the internal

London, Essex and Hertfordshire. As the newest member of the Group,
having joined in April 2005, Springboard brings assets and skills

and for people with special needs.
Genesis Community was launched in 2005 as a
charitable foundation to specifically tackle the challenges of
deprivation and social exclusion in the most disadvantaged areas.
Genesis has always been strong on community development and
regeneration. Around 50 projects are already underway delivering
real change at a grass roots level across a number of themes
including; young people, vulnerable and elderly people, safer
communities, financial inclusion and training and employment.
Genesishomes is the sales arm of Genesis Housing Group.
It provides homes for sale through part-buy/part-rent and outright
sale. The team helps people who are unable to access a home of
their own within the private sector, where open market property
prices are very high and rents are expensive.
A Group treasury vehicle that enables Genesis to obtain bulk
finance at cheaper rates than they are currently available. This
allows us to fund developments flexibly. In 2005 Genesis agreed to
a new loan facilities of £550 million with some of the sector's
leading funders.
A corporate structure that enables us to undertake a more diverse
development programme with developers and
investors.
