Foresight group

As well as celebrating our 125th anniversary by looking back at our history, we need to cast our eyes forward to look at our future. Where will we be in the next 10, 25, 125 years?
As part of our celebrations and with this in mind, we have established an external Foresight Group. This group is made up of thought leaders across health, economics, equity, digital, sustainability, regenerative design, architecture, and finance.
Their task will be to establish the five giants of the future, using the ideas of the Beveridge Report as inspiration, and bring their unique perspectives to the table to inform this work. We will be asking them: “What are the giants that are likely to impact us in the future and what should be done to address them?”
They will meet at our head office in Greater London House over the coming months to discuss their findings and propose some solutions. We will post a blog summary after each meeting so you can follow along.
Setting the scene: our Foresight Group's first update

The Foresight Group had its first meeting on 9 December 2024.
Its diverse members got to know each other, and the team from Clarion took the opportunity to set out their hopes for the group.
Nature recovery

In 2024, we launched our Nature Recovery Strategy, focusing on biodiversity, wellbeing, placemaking, and climate resilience.
The strategy prioritises ecosystem services that benefit environmental health and community resilience.
Building a greener future

At Clarion, we are dedicated to creating sustainable, comfortable, and energy-efficient homes while enhancing community wellbeing and building climate resilience.
Our goal is to achieve net-zero carbon, restore nature, and eliminate fuel poverty by 2050, generating over £3bn in social value.
