The Ethical Property Company

Ethical Property is one of the UK’s leading social businesses. We aim to ensure that commercial property supports the creation of a better world, through the provision of:• Workspace to charities and other values driven organisations,• Retail space that supports small businesses and social enterprises and • Workshops for organisations in creative industries. We own 16 centres in England and Scotland, and manage a further eight on behalf of like-minded landlords. We currently employ over 70 employees and support over 800 organisations working in a wide variety of sectors. Our centres are managed to minimise energy use, waste, car travel and the use of harmful materials while offering tenants modern, affordable and flexible space, managed in a transparent and supportive way. Whilst social and environmental values drive everything that we do, making a profit is an essential element of our ‘triple bottom line model.’ Paying a dividend regularly and managing our properties so as to increase the long-term value of our shareholders’ investment is necessary to attract the capital we need to put our principles into practice. Above all however, we are focused on providing space that facilitates the sharing of resources and the creation of a communal working environment, while removing the complexity and bureaucracy that often exists when renting property.
