“Having suppliers who understand the sustainability agenda is essential: we cannot deliver our sustainable development targets and ambitions without them. Since the School opened in 2012, we have seen a remarkable increase in the knowledge, skills and enthusiasm of our supply chain.”

“Keepmoat’s Vision is Building Communities, Transforming Lives. Our suppliers have a huge role to play in the local economy, providing career and training opportunities in and around the places we create. Our supply chain is also vital in support us to achieve our environmental aims – such as achieving our science-based carbon targets. We are proud to partner with the School and to play an active role in School’s Homes Group – for example speaking to hundreds of suppliers at the Homes Group’s conference to green the homebuilding supply chain. ”
