Delivering our business strategy

Our Business Strategy 2024-2035 sets out our priorities for the coming decade.

Read our business strategy 2024-2035.

We’ve kept it clear and simple, listing objectives for the year ahead alongside statements of ambition describing where we want to be in 2030 and 2035.

Like any good strategy, it also identifies key measures of success so we can check our progress along the way.

On this page we’ll be providing quarterly updates on each of those measures so it’s quick and easy for you to see how we’re doing.

We’ve split them up into our strategy’s three main foundations – Happy customers, Fantastic homes, and Brilliant people.

Quarter 2 – July to September 2024
