Community

In the right hands, 1% is a big deal.

Our values seek mutual success and our Pledge 1% leverages a portion of our success to support our communities.

We do this by offering up to 1% of our spaces, profits and our people’s time, towards community organisations and enterprises that support meaningful employment within our local communities. 

The more successful we are, the more we can give.

Pledge

Here's what we achieved in FY22:

ICONS - OUR PEOPLE
People

Employees engaged in 3,143 hours of volunteering, in a year impacted by COVID-19 restrictions. 

Our team are encouraged to give 1% of their time to support community projects.

  • Personal and team volunteering
  • Dollar matched workplace giving
  • Employee-led initiatives drive fundraising and volunteering opportunities, building engagement and deepening insight.

 


ICONS - OUR PLACES
Places

27,801sqm+ in Pledge 1% space, valued at $1.4m provided for community use.

We provide space for community organisations and enterprises throughout Australia.

  • Identifying and addressing local community needs
  • Activating vacant or underutilised spaces
  • Supporting new initiatives that create belonging


ICONS - OUR PARTNERSHIPS
Partnerships

$1.28 million donated to community organisations across Australia and overseas.

We partner with leading national organisations to offer a range of services, engagement programs and volunteering opportunities to our people.

  • Of $1.28 million, $578,000 was donated to crisis support in response to local impacts of COVID-19 and floods, international access to vaccinations and emergency support for Ukrainian families relocating to Australia.
  • This year, we spent $1 million in social procurement with social enterprises including Two Good Co soap in our Office portfolio. 


Supporting our communities is an important part of what we do as a business. That’s why each financial year, we offer our people two days of additional leave dedicated to giving back through volunteering.

In FY23, our people spent 3,412 hours volunteering. Together, we cooked meals, packed care hampers, made shelter for native wildlife, regenerated bushland and provided emergency food relief. Our biggest achievement to date! A big thank you to each and every one of them for helping us make a difference.
