About us

160 years ago Octavia Hill championed the ideal that decent, affordable housing, coupled with respect and a sense of community can transform lives. Octavia Housing has continued to keep that ideal alive by providing affordable homes and support services in central and west London. 

The housing crisis is becoming even more acute. Rising costs and insufficient supply means there are too many people without the quality homes, services and respect they deserve. Housing providers also continue to face competing demands between building new affordable homes and investing in existing homes. 

To strengthen the organisation and deliver more for our customers and communities, in 2024 Octavia became a subsidiary of the Abri group before formally becoming part of the group in 2026.
