We’ve made significant progress towards our goal to power a low carbon future one rooftop at a time, with another five major solar panel installations completed across our portfolio as part of our National Solar PV Project initiative. These rooftop installations at our retail centres Waurn Ponds, Warners Bay, Gungahlin Village, Fletcher Village and Nundah Village, are the latest in our portfolio of over 50 office and retail assets now generating clean and cost-effective energy every day while saving thousands of CO2 emissions in the process. As a result, we have so far saved our tenant partners over $1.5 million in electricity costs and over 12,000+ tonnes of CO2 per year - equivalent to avoiding over 6,000 tonnes of coal burned on an annual basis. It’s all part of our ESG focus to lead with ambition and create better futures.

We’ve been shining a light on the impact of gender-based violence these past 16 days as part of this year’s #16DaysofActivism, to support women to feel safe, everywhere and always. As an active member of the Property Council of Australia and Champions of Change Coalition, our teams have been raising awareness by: ▪️ Encouraging our office communities to donate unused phones on behalf of DV Safe Phone via dedicated collection boxes in our office foyers ▪️ Donating the proceeds from the weekly flower auctions within our office buildings to DV Safe Phone, to continue their work to support those in need ▪️ Joined 6,000 of our industry peers to hear the Property Council of Australia’s Tools Down live stream with former Australian sex discrimination Commissioner Elizabeth Broderick, listening to important stories on the impact of domestic and family violence and the role the workplace plays ▪️ Joined over 70 buildings across the country last night by lighting up a selection of our assets in orange to raise ongoing awareness on the impact gender-based violence has globally, and  ▪️ Reminded our people of our enhanced leave entitlements that provide unlimited access to Domestic and Family Violence Leave should they need it. This action coincides with our support for the release of the Champions of Change Coalition’s 2024 Impact Report which is committed to accelerating inclusive gender equality in the workplace. The Impact Report details progress, challenges, and innovative strategies to create safe and inclusive workplaces that benefit all employees and the broader community, so people everywhere feel seen, heard and respected.
