Social value & carbon

Lasting value for the communities we work in

We believe the work we deliver should leave more behind than the works themselves — local jobs, new skills, safer homes and a lower carbon footprint. Our approach is aligned to the Public Services (Social Value) Act and PPN 06/21.

Our commitments

How we create social value

Practical commitments we build into the way we deliver, reported against your framework's social value model where required.

Local employment

Recruiting and sourcing locally wherever we can, keeping spend and jobs in the communities where we work.

Skills & training

Investing in apprenticeships, trade training and accreditation so our people — and the wider workforce — progress.

Safer, warmer homes

Fire safety and retrofit works that directly improve residents' safety, comfort and energy bills.

Supporting communities

Minimising disruption for residents, working considerately on occupied sites and supporting local initiatives.

Ethical supply chain

Modern slavery due diligence, fair and prompt payment to subcontractors, and responsible sourcing.

Equality & inclusion

A diverse, inclusive workforce, with recruitment and conduct governed by our published policies.

Carbon & environment

Working towards net zero

We are committed to reducing the carbon impact of our operations and helping clients decarbonise their stock through fabric-first retrofit. Our environmental management covers waste reduction, responsible disposal and cutting emissions from our fleet and sites.

Our Carbon Reduction Plan sets out our commitment and the actions we are taking — available alongside our other governance documents.

Reporting

Measured against your social value model

Where a contract requires it, we set targets at the outset and report delivery against the relevant social value framework (such as the National TOMs or a client's own model), so outcomes are evidenced, not just promised.
