In 2010 Tony did some high level research about the levels of homelessness throughout Greater London in an attempt to get an answer to a simple question:

• Why does London, one of the pre-eminent global financial centres, have so many homeless people?

The answers were, and still are, many and various. In July 2013 Tony met Steve and shared the question with him. In the intervening years we met with lots of stakeholders, helping us achieve an holistic understanding of the entire problem. In short, the homelessness problem is dauntingly high. Steve spent nearly 30 years in a wide variety of senior roles covering all aspects of residential and commercial property lending and has added to this experience by spending recent years in a variety of Chair/NED roles with a focus on regulatory compliance and governance. Tony's expertise / experience over the past 30+ years covers a diverse portfolio of activities from private equity, private debt, purchasing distressed debt, M&A etc. Sonny has built a strong reputation, blending commercial success with social impact, revitalising un-occupied Commercial Real Estate (CRE) by bringing it back into use, creating working hubs, community centric and cultural spaces.

Based on our holistic understanding, we came up with a simple solution, which, through several iterations, evolved into CarradaleLondon. Then Covid struck in early 2020 which delayed us to 2024 to launch our CarradaleLondon service offering. Sonny brings new impetus with a complementary mindset, joining us in our strong desire to provide stable, long term accommodation to - currently - homeless families with children in Temporary Accommodation.
