Our commitment to creating sustainable homes

Our focus on reducing carbon emissions is not only reflected in our eco-friendly housing design and build, but across our business, using electricity from renewable energy sources across all our offices and developments.   

While we appreciate the industry relies on the use of high carbon materials – concrete, tiles, glass, tarmac – it is important to have a plan of how to mitigate this as much as possible through education, innovation and awareness. We collaborate closely with partners to create less waste and support more sustainable methods in as many areas as possible.  

In autumn 2023, we developed and launched our carbon reduction plan which sets targets including reaching net zero by 2040. Our entire team has been given carbon literacy training to ensure we are well equipped to achieve our targets.  

We continue to measure our carbon footprint on an annual basis to ensure we understand ways in which we can lower our emissions and deliver our Carbon Reduction Plan, which we first formulated in 2023.  

Our scope 1 and 2 emissions remain negligible as we continue to use energy from renewable sources. Our scope 3 emissions are reliant upon the procurement and performance of our supply chain, the majority of which continues to strive to reduce their own emissions and we have provided advice and training where we can, to help them on their own carbon reduction plans. We are making a real difference to the carbon footprint of our customers by enabling them to lead sustainable and energy efficient lives in the dwellings we provide.
