We are living in game changing times. Businesses across the world are changing their focus to ensure they create a sustainable future that serves the wellbeing of all. We have started this journey too, in fact we have made great strides forward over the past couple of years with the help from Martin, our Architectural Technician.
We have always challenged the status quo and asked lots of questions, that’s a really important trait that we must never loose. The opposite of asking questions is to question nothing. If you don’t question things, there’s no knowledge and no learning, no creativity and no imagination. Imagine that! So, we must always ask why. And why not. Ask lots and lots of questions, then listen. That’s how we will continue to evolve and discover new ways of working.
We have proven we can build zero carbon homes, we understand the benefits these homes bring for everyone and will continue to deliver for generations to come. We have the solutions, the product and predevelopment teams are now focussed on driving this forward and growing this part of our business.
We have created a sustainability strategy for the whole business, not just the homes. This year we will start to see small changes across the wider business. We appreciate this will take time and effort. We will be recruiting a new team member to help us to drive this forward and to ensure we continue to lead the way.
Martin's Strata Story
People can be blinkered
taking things as gospel.
“That's how we've always done it…
so that's how we'll always do it.”
When I look at my kids, I think
“what’s going to happen in your life?
What's going to change in 30 years
between now and when
I'm coming to the end of my time
and you've got your families
but we’ve used up our resources,
and the world’s changed.
“Who's took us down that right path
to make sure the house we've built
is the home you need?
A happy home,
fit for purpose…
that wasn’t so wasteful to build?”
It’s for us to set that path,
to come together,
compare like-for-like and ask
“what is the best fit?
Which has the least impact?”
There’s no crystal ball,
only people with a shared passion
to build the best houses
and put their best in to do it.
When you see the badge,
you see the team,
you see the legacy.
