More than 18 months since we last spoke about environmental, social and governance (ESG) reporting (ep 2), Kieran Findlay and Jimmy Black reconvene with Link Group's finance director Nick Pollard to discuss how the parameters have changed during this time and how housing associations can benefit from adopting the Sustainability Reporting Standard for Social Housing (SRS) to access private finance.

Kieran also talks to Julie McDowell, the chair of Blackwood Homes and Care, which is another early adopter of SRS. Julie is also a board member at Sustainability for Housing - the organisation behind the SRS - and is working to help make the framework more suitable for RSLs who may be concerned about the increasingly complicated reporting requirements.

Jimmy Black has written a blog to accompany the episode here: https://www.scottishhousingnews.com/articles/blacks-blog-navigating-the-requirements-of-esg

Kieran Findlay is the editor of Scottish Housing News. Jimmy Black is a former Dundee housing convener and housing justice campaigner.
