Our UK property business has invested over £1m in Greener Futures, its programme focused on helping communities to take climate action, creating access to training and jobs in the green economy and improving access to nature.
This milestone was achieved two years ahead of schedule through accelerated corporate grant giving and exceptional fundraising efforts by Grosvenor staff. Following this success, the investment target has been increased to £1.5m.
At its halfway stage, Greener Futures has supported 43 projects and engaged 40,400 people in climate action.
Training programmes funded by the initiative have also helped over 72 previously unemployed London residents gain qualifications, 75% of whom have gone on to secure long-term opportunities.
Grosvenor’s London staff have also helped to improve public green spaces in some of the area’s most deprived postcodes and playgrounds in the city’s schools by donating over 5,833 volunteering hours since 2022.
