About us
London is moving east and Newham is at the centre of that change. Just three miles east from the City and well connected to major transport links, we are the future of the capital in terms of regeneration and opportunities. We are home to one of the UK’s youngest and most ethnically diverse populations. We offer unique opportunities for both professionals and residents. We are a great place to do business, a great place to visit, and a great place where people choose to live, work and stay.
