Wandle supports people across south London who need a home.

The Merton Family Housing Trust, Wandle’s original name, was formed in 1967 by a group of local people who were concerned about homelessness. They felt that it was possible to do something practical about it. They had a simple aim: “to provide homes for homeless families, regardless of colour, language, race, or creed.”

We continue to invest in the communities in which we were founded, supporting local organisations and encouraging residents to realise their full potential.

We have grown into an organisation with nearly 7,500 homes across nine south London boroughs, providing homes for rent (social and affordable), shared ownership, outright sale, and supported housing. We also have a small portfolio of commercial properties and garages.
