Our 2030 Sustainability Strategy
Our 2030 Sustainability Strategy is focused on three key pillars where British Land can create the most benefit: Greener Spaces, Thriving Places and Responsible Choices.
We recognise the importance of regular materiality assessments to inform our Sustainability Strategy.

Thriving Places Thriving Places
We are creating a long-lasting positive social impact by collaboratively addressing local priorities. We focus our resources on three key areas: education, employment and affordable space. We have set a target to directly generate £200m of social and economic value by 2030, including through our Social Impact Fund and spending with SMEs.
