This past year Golding received SHIFT (Sustainable Homes Index for Tomorrow) Gold accreditation, successfully secure d financial support from the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund to partner in their efforts to improve the energy efficiency of over 100 existing homes.   

David Hart, Director of Finance said: “Our core purpose is to be an efficient and high performing organisation that’s , local, visible, and listening, providing sustainable homes and communities with three key goals . To provide: excellent customer services and, safe , sustainable homes and communities.  

“ We’re proud of the progress we continue to make with ESG issues and remain focused on making our homes warmer and affordable to run and improving our environmental performance in all we do. We understand that as we invest in new social housing our social impact increases and it’s important to keep focused on how we support our ethical governance principles.”
