Welcome to Thamesmead

Thamesmead is an extraordinary place, with its balance of urban and natural spaces, strong local communities and a growing cultural scene. 

Built in the late 1960s and hailed as the town of tomorrow, it's home to 47,000 people. 

Peabody is committed to improving, growing and looking after the town for the long term. This starts with understanding local people’s needs and aspirations, and then working with communities and partners to create new opportunities and better neighbourhoods.
