Sustainability for Housing coordinates the development, promotion and maintenance of The Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing (SRS). The SRS is a voluntary reporting framework, covering 48 criteria across ESG considerations such as zero carbon targets, affordability, safety and resident voice. The sector has made a great start in adopting ESG reporting, which many believe will become mandatory in the future. The Standard is already playing it’s part in securing long term well priced finance for the Social Housing sector. It is enabling housing providers to report on their ESG performance in a transparent, consistent and comparable way. This is making it easier for lenders and investors to assess the ESG performance of housing providers, identify ESG risks and pursue opportunities to create positive social and environmental outcomes. Today, over 100 organisations have signed up to SRS as either SRS adopters or endorsers. 35 of these are the major Lenders to Housing Associations. If your organisation is interested in becoming an SRS Adopter, please follow the website link on this page.
