2024 ESG REPORT
"What a brilliant year of all things ESG at Moda! We launched our Social Value Strategy, portal and app covering all of our neighbourhoods from development right through to operations allowing us to have transparent data of our economic, social and environmental impact across the group.
Looking forward to 2025, I am confident that Moda will achieve its constantly evolving and ambitious ESG commitments while continuously doing more to support a more sustainable and resilient society."
- Tarry Depledge, Head of ESG
CHANGING BEHAVIOURS WITH MODA + UTOPI
Along with out partner Utopi, we have introduced smart building technology across three Moda neighbourhoods with the aim of better understanding patterns of resident behaviours. The partnership enables us to use real-time data and take action to operate more sustainably.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & SOCIAL IMPACT
Working with the local community and Brighton and Hove council, we've created an exemplary public art strategy. During 2022-23, we made great progress on bringing this to life.
Moda has commited £10m to community projects and public realm enhancements in Hove which will benefit the local community.
IN CONVERSATION WITH JOHNNY CADDICK & TONY BROOKS
"With social impact at the forefront of what we do, our work starts way before we welcome our first residents, helping to support existing communities, fostering new public-private partnerships and working on placemaking and cultural activations that enhance existing locations.
We're making great progress on our 2025 Next Generation Futures goals, in 2024 we will continue to implement strategies to meet existing targets as well as further align ourselves to Sustainable Finance Disclosures Regulation (SFDR) requirements - a key focus for the business as we grow."
The time for this is now
ENVIRONMENTAL
Our sustainability plans make sure that we are having the best possible impact on the planet and our communities. We're making our mark to give our communities the best possible futures.
GREEN. SMARTER.
Moda's operational neighbourhoods are Rego Certified which means they run on electricity from sustainable sources including solar, wind and hydro.
Not only that, smart technology from our partner Utopi is installed in all neighbourhoods, meaning we can track the energy efficiency and wellbeing of our buildings. Live data tracking means building performance is constantly monitored, adapted and improved.
Residents are also incentivised into green behaviours by sharing consumption data and guidance on how to manage personal consumption, as well as offering discounted travel on local transport, car clubs, state-of-the-art cycling facilities and more.
Happy, healthier lives
SOCIAL
Working with our team, residents, communities and stakeholders to support people to live happier and healthier lives. We’re prioritising career opportunities and employment, directly engaging and supporting our local communities.
Moda + Yorkshire Children's Charity

EMPOWERING PEOPLE
We prioritise local employment wherever possible in all areas of development and operation, and partner with local independent businesses for a range of services and partnerships. We also run dedicated apprenticeship programmes across development, construction and operational hospitality disciplines and aim to hire over 15 apprentices over the next 3 years on the operational side of our business.
