Transparency is important to us - in the way we do business and speak to our communities, colleagues, partners and investors.
Here you'll find some of our main strategies, which outline our priorities in different areas of the organisation and help us meet our objectives.
Group Strategy 2025-28
This new three-year strategy sets out our plan for the next three years and is focused squarely on improvement.
With no more mergers on the horizon, we’re now focused on delivering better services for residents, better together for colleagues, and better homes and places for the long-term.
We have important work planned to make these goals happen, while continuing to respond to economic and regulatory challenges.
Over the next three years, residents will see our services become more reliable – with fewer issues, quicker fixes, and clearer communication. We’re also equipping teams with better tools and training, simplifying how we work and embedding a local approach across Peabody.
All of this will help build trust between Peabody and the communities we serve.
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy 2023-26
Colleagues and residents develop and grow together in a culture which supports growth and celebrates diversity.
Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy was created with input from people across our organisation – including our residents and team members. It helps us turn our belief in equality, diversity and inclusion into concrete actions and commitments.
"Our vision is to be a diverse and inclusive organisation where everyone can flourish. One where everyone at every level, from the board and leadership to our wider teams, reflects our residents and customers."
People Strategy 2023-26
Designed to attract and retain the best talent so we can get closer to our residents and deliver what matters most to them.
Our vision is to be a workplace where everyone can bring their whole self to work, and most importantly, one which reflects the communities we serve. Our People Strategy sets out what it's like to work at Peabody. It highlights our people-focused culture and shows how we're here to help everyone flourish, whether it's residents, colleagues, communities or partners.
"Attracting and retaining diverse and talented people is key to our success."
