With sustainability and wellbeing in mind, we always apply innovative thinking to our activity.
Today's technology helps us build faster, more cheaply, with reduced wastage and a lower environmental impact, using lower-carbon materials.

Since Covid-19 began impacting our business in March, we have responded quickly to ensure our stakeholders are supported and the resilience of the business is maintained.
We established teams to support our priorities during the pandemic ranging from employee and customer support, operations and corporate affairs through to internal functions including finance and tech.
We have also been working on plans for how Landsec and our markets will emerge from the current conditions based on a number of scenarios to ensure we are well placed to respond quickly for our customers and focus on strategic priorities.

We’ve always taken sustainability seriously and, as a leader in our sector, have made a commitment to becoming a net zero carbon company by 2030. There are five elements to our strategy for achieving this.
We measure the contribution we make to the UK economy. This may be through our own activities or through the spaces and places we create, which allow others to thrive.

The early part of the financial year was affected by significant political uncertainty. However, following the general election in December 2019, there was an initial wave of optimism and clear signs of an improving economic outlook and real estate market. This was halted abruptly by the effect of, and response to, the Covid-19 pandemic in the final weeks of the financial year.
To create value, we buy, develop, manage and sell property, drawing on a range of financial, physical and social resources along the way.
We focus on maximising financial, physical and social value by providing the spaces and environments that allow businesses and people to thrive. Our Combined Portfolio includes office space in London, and retail, leisure and hotel assets across the UK.
Good governance is vital in any year, but this year it has been a critical foundation for Landsec’s response to Covid-19, providing a framework for effective decision-making and addressing the changing needs of our stakeholders.
We set financial and non-financial KPIs in line with our strategy. They provide clear direction for our people and a measure of our progress in 2021.
Strong corporate governance and culture underpins performance, inspires trust and is essential to Landsec’s long-term success.
