Telford Homes has used innovative construction and design features to protect and enhance the environment across the portfolio.

John Fitzgerald, Group Managing Director, Telford Homes commented: “Our Sustainability Report 2022 demonstrates the ways that we remain committed to building sustainable communities and putting economic, social and environmental principles at the centre of all business strategy and everyday activity.
