Catalyst Housing association predicts it will spend between £500m and £900m over the next four years delivering an ambitious building programme across London and the South East.

The firms will deliver a mix of housing types for Catalyst Housing from affordable rented accommodation, low cost home ownerships, private sale, and mixed tenure schemes, to some major refurbishment and regeneration above the EU procurement threshold.
