Looking ahead, we've set out a bold new Roadmap with ambitious targets across carbon, biodiversity, water efficiency and social impact. Our goal? To generate more than £90 million in verified social value and lead the way in future-proofed housing.
Sustainability is a core part of the foundation for how we approach development. This year’s report reflects our ambition to lead by example and to ensure that our homes deliver for the people who need them most, for the planet and for future generations. We are extremely proud of the progress we have made as a team.

UK’s most sustainable housebuilder
Latimer has been named the UK's most sustainable housebuilder in JLL's NextGeneration Benchmark 2024/2025, earning the top Gold Award.
This recognition highlights our commitment to creating places that last - places that support people, communities and the environment.
We achieved a 100% score for socio-economic development, showing how our homes deliver real social value and respond to local needs. As a purpose-led developer, sustainability shapes every stage of our work. Most of our homes are rated Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) A or B, and 96.5% were delivered fossil-fuel-free last year.
Together, these results show how Latimer is building neighbourhoods designed to thrive long into the future.
