Wandle has signed up to a new national campaign to help it tackle domestic abuse in communities across south London.

Two years after first discovering the extent of the problems affecting the 85 homes at Solomon’s Passage, the London Borough of Southwark has granted planning permission to demolish and redevelop two of the four blocks.

On 24 June, Wandle, will join several housing associations from across the UK to raise money for Women’s Aid – a charity that supports women experiencing domestic violence.

Wandle, in partnership with Skillcrown, has finished building 20 new homes at Hillingdon Street (pictured), in the heart of Camberwell. All of the homes at Hillingdon Street will be offered as shared ownership, helping first time buyers get their foot onto the property ladder.  

We are very proud to announce that three Wandle team members have made it into 24housing Magazine's top 20 Younger Leaders. Ashley Rudge, Communications Manger, Tashnika Luke-Bannerman, Repairs, and Juber Ahmed, Sales and Marketing Manager, have all nabbed a spot in the top 20 of this coveted award.

Year 9 Business Students at Harris Academy South Norwood have been busy finding out about the problem of homelessness in south London, and have written and produced a fundraising magazine in partnership with our Community Involvement team at Wandle.

As part of our commitment to improve our repairs service, we are also looking at how we can make our repairs policy clearer and a better reflection of the way we work today.

Wandle’s 50th anniversary film, exploring the journey from our beginnings as a small group of people, meeting around a kitchen table in Merton, wanting to make a change, scooped the Bronze award in the Corporate Social Responsibility category.

On Saturday 3 March, Wandle launched four new schemes at the 10^th London Home Show, in Westminster. The event saw over 4,300 potential first time buyers brave the big chill to get information and advice about home ownership.
