Met with Denzyl Feigelson

We are a mission-driven business (think The Big Issue) that builds high-quality, affordable homes in the London area.

Unlike profit-only developers, we don’t charge a premium to line shareholders’ pockets.

Any profits are reinvested in our mission to make affordable housing available to every hard-working Londoner.

Really useful. Great big picture advice from Denzyl!”
