The client

Abri is a large not-for-profit housing provider based in the South of England. They have committed to building 10,000 new homes by 2030, whilst understanding their position as a housing association tackling climate change by decarbonising the homes they own.

The challenge

Having made strong progress with their Environment and Climate Strategy, and their Carbon Academy and biodiversity plan, Abri wanted to cement their environmental, social and governance efforts in their third robust ESG report.

The solution

Combining extensive sector and ESG knowledge, we developed an enhanced report that not only tracked key metrics as set out by the Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing (SRS) but also introduced a set of core, forward-looking KPI’s to allow key stakeholders to easily view the housing association’s progress.

Abri is committed to creating sustainable communities and our ESG reporting is an important channel through which we can demonstrate our impact, priorities and progress to our stakeholders. Social and Newbridge provided valuable end-to-end support to our ESG approach, from workshops that helped ensure we are across the changing ESG landscape, providing an external perspective on our disclosures against the Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing and other key frameworks such as TCFD, and helping with compiling and producing our report. We look forward to working with the team again.”
