The Homes and Communities Agency, formerly known as English Partnerships, is the Government's national regeneration agency and freehold owner of Greenwich Peninsula.

Since purchasing the 300 acre Greenwich Peninsula site in 1997, HCA has invested over £217m in the regeneration of the area. This includes investment in the remediation, servicing and landscaping of the site, provision of transport links and access improvements, construction of a new school and health centre and the relocation of Greenwich Yacht Club.

HCA delivers high quality, sustainable growth in England. This is achieved by developing a portfolio of strategic projects and acting as the Government's specialist advisor on brownfield land. It also ensures that surplus public sector assets are used to support wider government objectives, especially those contained in the Sustainable Communities Plan. HCA helps to create communities where people can afford to live and want to live, and supports the urban renaissance by improving the quality of our towns and cities.
