Working as a Companion in Peckham
Peckham has become one of London's most talked-about neighbourhoods in recent years, and with good reason. The SE15 postcode has drawn artists, musicians, chefs and creative entrepreneurs who found Brixton too expensive and Shoreditch too corporate. The result is a neighbourhood with genuine creative energy, excellent restaurants, some of London's best natural wine bars, and a community that is intensely social.
The Peckham companion finds a client base that is primarily young — 25–40 — creative, and informal. These are not clients who want Claridge's; they want the corner table at Peckham Levels, a long evening with good food and better conversation, the kind of company that makes a Tuesday evening feel worth having. For a companion who is confident, warm and culturally aware, Peckham offers some of the most personally enjoyable work available.
The economics of Peckham are changing quickly. What was a neighbourhood of lower earnings five years ago now has a growing cohort of well-paid professionals — graphic designers with Silicon Valley clients, architects with practices in the City, journalists on national papers. Rates have risen accordingly, and we expect them to continue rising as the area matures.
Peckham's creative economy is growing rapidly. Companions combining local work with the Overground to London Bridge, which is 15 minutes away, access a much wider and higher-earning market.
