Welcome

The results of the 2009 NextGeneration Corporate Benchmark have been launched at the Jones Lang LaSalle offices in central London, with Sir Bob Kerslake (Chief Executive, Homes and Communities Agency) giving the keynote speech at a well-attended event. The NextGeneration report "Laying Firm Foundations - UK homebuilders make progress in addressing sustainability" ranks the UKs top 25 homebuilders according to their sustainability performance. 
Sir Bob Kerslake, Chief Executive, HCA says: “It is good to see that sustainability has remained high on the agenda for house builders, despite the economic downturn. A recession is no excuse to lower standards or reduce sustainability goals and at the HCA, we are pleased to be working with many of the housebuilders listed on developing some of the most innovative and sustainable homes in the country.”

NextGeneration is a membership-based organisation, consisting of many of the UK’s largest homebuilders, overseen by a high-level Executive Committee to ensure the integrity and independence of the initiative. NextGeneration seeks to enable the industry to understand what opportunities and risks the sustainable housing agenda poses through benchmarking, networking and knowledge-sharing
NextGeneration’s 2009 benchmark assesses the top 25 UK homebuilders based on their sustainability strategy, governance and risk management and their impact on the environment and on society.
