The respective Boards of Women’s Pioneer Housing and Housing for Women have agreed to explore a potential merger.

Currently working as two separate organisations, the groups have recognised that the demand for homes and support services for women in London “far exceeds” what either can provide alone.

In a statement, the groups have said that the merger could set to create greater financial and operational capacity to be able to deliver high quality homes and the services that make a difference to women’s lives.

The groups have highlighted that it could also provide wider housing solutions and choices for women in London needing homes and support services now and in the future.

Both organisations are said to be working together with residents/service users and other stakeholders to explore whether a merger would enable us to provide a stronger housing offer and support services to women in London.
