We’re thrilled to share that Tonic is now officially the UK’s first LGBTQ+ Registered Provider of Social Housing, and naturally, our timing was impeccable - this was confirmed the day before London Pride! 🌈 🥳

Here’s to more homes, more pride, and being fabulous at every age! ✨

We are happy to announce that we will be taking part in @prideinlondon.bsky.social this Saturday 5th July! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We will be attending once again with our vintage bus, full of our Tonic community members & supported by our friends at PwC UK!

Please do give us a wave and cheer if you see us! 👋🏾 📣

The LGBTQ+ family survey is open now: lnkd.in/efhq48jF

This survey aims to provide an understanding of the different forms of family practiced by LGBTQ+ people, and how these families experience representation and inequity in public services.

At the end of this month, we are saying goodbye to our extraordinary CEO, Anna🩷

As Tonic’s first ever CEO and nearly 7 years working above and beyond for Tonic’s mission, Anna is retiring.

Join us in celebrating Anna and wishing her the best for her next chapter 🌈

Today, Tonic Housing has published a major study, entitled Precarious Lives, that explores financial and material hardship among LGBTQ+ people in London aged 50 and above 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

Great to celebrate #LGBTplusHM25 at Bankside Tonic Housing @tonichousing.bsky.social - the UK’s first retirement community tailored for older LGBTQI+ Londoners. Loved hearing the stories & experiences of residents.

Supported by the Mayor @london.gov.uk as part of London's age-friendly action plan

Yesterday we hosted our first 'Tea with Tonic' session of 2025 🥳

A huge thank you to Simon Blake OBE, @stonewalluk.bsky.social's new CEO, for coming along to Tonic@Bankhouse to talk with our residents 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

Hosted by our wonderful co-founder Board member, Ali Wilson 💚

#lgbtq #retirement #community

On 2nd August 2021, Tonic entered into a loan agreement for £5.7M from @london.gov.uk to purchase 19 apartments at Bankhouse to create the UK’s first LGBTQ+ affirming retirement community 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

Following the sale of 17 apartments, Tonic has now repaid the entire loan in full!

We welcome the publication of the report from The Older People's Housing Taskforce with Tonic@Bankhouse as a case study & the recognition of Community-led housing. Tonic residents met with Prof Julienne Meyer, to explain the needs of LGBTQ+ elders & the benefits of a mutually supportive community.
