Our purpose is to build great places for our customers, communities and the environment. We invest in placemaking, delivering attractive homes and incorporating sustainable and energy-efficient features in our developments. We strive to make a positive difference to people’s lives.
Governance
Effective governance plays a pivotal role in driving improvements in sustainability performance. Our commitment to responsible operations starts at the highest level of our organisation with Board oversight of the sustainability strategy and objectives. The evolution of our strategy and integration within the Group is guided by our Sustainability Committee, which operates with delegated authority from the Board and Executive Committee. In FY23 the Sustainability Committee, chaired by our Chief Executive, met four times. Further details on our governance structure can be found on our Corporate Governance page.
Stakeholder engagement
Recognising the ever-evolving landscape of environmental and social challenges, we are committed to regularly engaging with our stakeholders. This dialogue allows us to continually review and respond to concerns, helping us address material issues and anticipate potential sustainability-related risks and opportunities. For more details on what matters most to our stakeholders and our engagement with them, see pages 16 to 19 of our Annual Report 2023.
