The strategy is overseen by our Board which reviews and approves strategy and receives regular updates on the progress and performance against stated aims and objectives. The Board’s sub-committees each oversee relevant elements of the implementation of our strategy. Anchor’s Executive Committee are our ‘Sustainability Committee’ as per our Sustainable Finance Framework. The Sustainability Committee defines Anchor’s vision and ambition across ESG and Environmental Sustainability and NZC and is accountable for the delivery of our strategy, receiving regular progress updates and performance reports relating to the strategy. The Sustainability Committee are supported by our operational management committees across care, housing, operations and new developments, and by our Sustainability Steering Group, which brings together senior leaders and subject matter experts from across the organisation to interpret the Sustainability Committee’s vision into deliverable requirements, lead the programme of sustainability initiatives underway within the organisation, and act as a champion of sustainability across the business. We will report publicly on our progress against the aims in this strategy annually through our Annual Report and our Sustainability Report which also support our Sustainable Finance Framework.
