Building a Sustainable Future: The consolidated financial
statements of Peabody Trust for the year ended 31 March 2021.

The Peabody Group generated a surplus for the year of GBP110m
which was fully reinvested.
We invested GBP304m in new homes, GBP90m in our existing homes
and GBP8m in the Peabody Community Foundation. Our investment in
existing homes included GBP33m on building safety capital works
(bringing spend to GBP84m over the last 3 years).
Total turnover for the year was GBP630m with available debt
funding at 31 March 2021 of GBP4.2bn.
The value of our development pipeline is GBP1.4bn and we are on
track to start 7,000 new affordable homes for London by 2023 as
part of our strategic partnership with the Mayor of London.
We completed 1176 new homes, a 12% increase on the previous
year, with 88% being affordable tenures. 540 new homes for Social
and London Affordable rent, and 489 for shared ownership and
intermediate rent.
Our average weekly rent of GBP120 per week represents a GBP20m
annual subsidy against target rent and is GBP477m lower than market
rents in London.
The Group's credit ratings - A (stable) with S&P Global and
A3 (stable) with Moody's - were reaffirmed during the year and
reflect the strong investment proposition Peabody offers to
funders.
Our liquidity position for the Group has remained strong
throughout the year, with GBP375m in new facilities raised. We
retain strong interest cover, gearing and debt ratios and have
restructured some of our debt to provide a better financial
platform for us to help those in need.
We achieved 85% customer satisfaction on 190,000 repairs in
2020/21. Our new marketplace delivered 20,000 repairs starting from
October 2020, using a digital service to connect residents with 340
local suppliers, smaller businesses, and sole traders. Almost 90%
of customers were satisfied with their marketplace experience. We
will continue to modernise services to drive improvement for people
living in Peabody homes.
In 2020/21 we published a new Sustainability Strategy, setting
us on a path to net zero carbon by 2030 in our day-to-day business
and net zero carbon for our rented properties by 2050. To deliver
this we have formed a dedicated team to collect the data, measure
our impact and deliver the plans to achieve our objectives.

We also published a 30-year green infrastructure framework for
Thamesmead. We manage over 250ha of greenspace, 5 lakes, 7km of
canals, 30,000 trees and a wide range of habitats in the town. Our
award-winning approach will showcase Thamesmead as one of the most
biodiverse and genuinely sustainable new towns in the UK,
demonstrating how effective stewardship of the natural environment
can deliver wide ranging benefits for people.
We will publish our first report against the newly adopted
Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing in the autumn.
With sector wide Environmental, Social and Governance metrics that
align with our strategy and activities, we are well placed to
attract further investment from partners to help us make a great
social impact in Peabody neighbourhoods.
Eamonn Hughes, Chief Financial Officer at Peabody said:
"This is a strong financial performance for Peabody which
demonstrates the organisation's ability to manage the unprecedented
economic and social headwinds over the last 12 months. We continued
to prioritise investment in the safety and wellbeing of our
existing residents and communities and in providing more genuinely
affordable homes to help meet the need for more social housing.
"We are in a good position to continue to deliver investment in
our communities that really has an impact going forward. Our
place-based approach will ensure Peabody neighbourhoods are well
managed, and we'll deliver thousands of top-quality, sustainable,
new affordable homes for London and beyond."
