15th August 2024

Caridon Property is proud to announce that it has been selected as a finalist for the ‘Excellence in Community Engagement - Partnerships Award’ at the Property Week ESG EDGE Awards 2024. This recognition highlights Caridon Property's unwavering commitment to fostering social responsibility and building strong, supportive communities through innovative partnerships.

The ESG EDGE Awards have already made a significant impact within the property industry, attracting a record-breaking 229 entries. The competition has been particularly intense, with the quality and innovation of submissions extremely high.

The awards aim to celebrate the remarkable achievements of industry leaders who are successfully integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into their day-to-day operations. Caridon Property’s nomination in the ‘Community Engagement’ category reflects its dedication to these values. Caridon exemplifies its commitment through a holistic approach that goes beyond providing secure, quality housing. The company actively enhances the lives of its residents, particularly those from low-income households, by organising a range of community-focused initiatives.

From hosting seasonal parties that bring joy to families during school holidays to offering coffee mornings, health checks, and sports activities, Caridon consistently prioritises social inclusion, sustainability, and the overall well-being of its tenants.

Caridon Property’s efforts are rooted in the belief that strong communities are built on meaningful connections. This is especially important for residents who have relocated and may lack a local support network. Caridon has worked tirelessly to create opportunities for social interaction, helping to alleviate feelings of isolation and ensuring that all residents, regardless of their circumstances, feel a sense of belonging.

Caridon Property’s Community Engagement Officers play a pivotal role in organising activities that cater to the diverse needs of residents. These events not only provide entertainment but also foster social inclusion, making a tangible difference in the lives of those who might otherwise struggle during challenging times.

Mario Carrozzo, CEO of Caridon Group, expressed his pride in the nomination, stating: "Being recognised as a finalist for the ‘Excellence in Community Engagement - Partnerships Award’ is a true reflection of our team's dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of our residents. At Caridon, we believe that housing is more than just providing a roof over someone's head—it's about creating a supportive community where everyone feels included and valued. This nomination is a testament to our ongoing commitment to building stronger, more resilient communities through meaningful partnerships."

The winners of the ESG EDGE Awards will be announced at the ESG Edge Conference and Awards on 12 November 2024 at the Hilton Bankside.
