Delivering a sustainable legacy

Latimer achieved an overall score of 81, up three points on the previous year, moving from second to first place and securing both the Gold Award and the Crystal Award for highest Phase 1 score, which assesses publicly available information.

The result demonstrates a continued rise in performance, with Latimer climbing from ninth to first place in five years. It also reflects a broad-based approach to sustainability, with Latimer ranking first for communities and placemaking, socio-economic development, circular economy, and health, safety and environmental management.

Latimer's strongest performance came in areas that reflect its long-term approach to shaping places and communities. Scoring over 88% for communities, customer engagement and the quality of the places we create, and 100% for socio-economic development, the results underline its focus on creating places that respond to local needs and deliver long-term value.

As part of the UK's largest housing association, Latimer combines development expertise with long-term stewardship, reinvesting in homes and communities. This model underpins its role as a purpose-led master developer, where placemaking, affordable housing and social value are embedded from the outset.

The majority of Latimer's completed homes achieve EPC A or B ratings, with 96.5% delivered as fossil fuel free over the past year.
