Sustainability
Being a responsible partner for your development
Environment
Replenishing Nature and Enhancing Biodiversity
We enable, as a minimum, the delivery of a minimum of 10% Biodiversity Net Gain (England) on every development in line with the UK Government’s Environment Act, leaving a legacy of green space to improve stakeholder physical and mental wellbeing as well as a rich biodiverse landscape.
Carbon reduction
We commit to work with asset owners and investors on the reduction and removal of whole life carbon from developments through:
- The inclusion of a whole life carbon assessment for an asset as part of our drive to remove carbon from our operation
- Shaping the design of assets around it’s building performance over an agreed life span, rather than using traditional design approaches
- Working to the RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge and the LETI Guide building performance targets to meet and accelerate our progress towards a net positive operation
Resource efficiency
As part of our commitment to support asset owners and developers in reducing harm to the environment and building value into assets we:
- Focus on waste reduction
- Move towards a circular economy through reuse and repurposing of redundant materials
Social
Collectively our value chain has the ability to positively impact on the communities where we operate. We focus on health, safety, wellbeing and diversity of people in the workplace alongside the delivery of skill, training and employment opportunity to improve individuals’ lives. Every project delivered includes a social value delivery plan and corporately we support charities and local causes.
Governance
We are a business that focuses on financial transparency, robust risk management and equitable supply chains.
We operate strict prompt payment terms, with a track record of paying one hundred percent of invoices on time and this has been instrumental in managing the risks associated with poor supply chain performance.
Our experience and expertise in financial modelling of developments has enabled the delivery of profitable, quality developments that serve the needs of the market.
