Hi Kieran,

inserting
\consists "Piano_pedal_align_engraver"
and
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing #'padding = #1
seems to do the trick:

  \context {
    \name PianoPedals
    \alias "Voice"
    \type "Engraver_group"
    \consists "Piano_pedal_engraver"
    % Inserted:
    \consists "Piano_pedal_align_engraver"
    \consists "Axis_group_engraver"
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-affinity = #UP
    pedalSustainStrings = #'("Ped." "*Ped." "*")
    pedalSustainStyle = #'bracket
    % Inserted:
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing #'padding = #1
  }

HTH,
  Harm
