Being fair and equitable to all, irrespective of age, gender, disability, race, caring responsibilities, religion/belief or sexual orientation sits at the core of our purpose which is why it was wonderful to welcome Dr. Kenny Imafidon MBE, also known as ‘That Peckham Boy’, to share his story with our colleagues during a webinar today as part of Black History Month. It was a really thought-provoking session discussing how people make assumptions about others due to their race, and how important it is that we all improve our knowledge and understanding. Thank you Kenny for joining us. #BlackHistoryMonth

We are proud to announce we have reduced the carbon footprint of our operations by a third (33%) since we established a baseline in 2018, and by 6.9% in the past year. These reductions have been made possible by a series of measures including procurement of green electricity, an agile working policy and energy saving measures in our schemes and offices. We have made a firm commitment to achieving net zero carbon in our operations by 2030 and becoming net zero carbon in our homes and supply chain before 2050.
