Hanover Scotland has become the latest housing association to adopt the Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing (SRS).

Hanover Scotland is a non-profit organisation that has provided housing and support for older people, across Scotland, for over 40 years. With a portfolio of more than 5,000 homes, it offers a range of tenure types to meet residents’ needs to live securely and independently.

Zoe Lindsay, Sustainability Coordinator at Hanover Scotland, said: “Hanover Scotland have adopted the Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing (SRS) framework as it provided a very useful basis for our first ESG Report.

“The framework enables us to be transparent in our ESG performance and helps us set goals to continually improve. SRS enables the Social Housing sector to take a consistent approach to ESG and we look forward to being part of a community that is helping to lead and shape the reporting of the sector’s sustainability performance.”

Brendan Sarsfield, Chair of SfH, said: “It is great to welcome Hanover Scotland to the SRS adopters community.

“We are delighted to see that the organisation values the importance of improving its sustainability strategy through the SRS, and we look forward to working with Hanover Scotland on its journey.”
