Registered Providers
Lambeth Council is currently discussing increasing social rent housing by working with registered providers.
In July 2026, Lambeth Council's Housing Scrutiny Sub-Committee discussed plans to increase social rent housing, including working with registered providers. Councillor Pete Elliott, Cabinet Member for Housing, stated that the administration's priority is the delivery of council homes or social homes with these providers, shifting away from reliance on private sales for cross-subsidy.
Registered providers are organisations that provide social housing, often in partnership with local authorities. Lambeth Council's strategy to increase social rent housing also involves bringing empty homes back into use and developing on council-owned land, aiming to tackle the borough's housing crisis.
