Ethical and responsible
Local charities protect, support, and enhance their communities – and we want to support them. We donate 3% of every fee we make to a London charity and you can choose which one.
Glass Door helps homeless men and women in London through its large network of emergency shelters and support services. These winter shelters provide a warm welcome, food, safety, and shelter for up to 170 people every night. Properly feels passionate about the issue of homelessness. That is why we are delighted that together with our clients we can assist Glass Door in their fantastic work to help some of the most marginalised people in society.
We need nature and nature needs us. We support The London Wildlife Trust because we share its concern for the environment. We want to ensure that we keep nature in mind as we work in the property market – and crucially, with people’s homes. We also want our employees to engage with nature and benefit from the well-being this brings. London Wildlife Trust cares for over 37 of London’s spaces, and their vision is: “a London alive with nature, where everyone can experience and enjoy wildlife”.
Families become homeless for reasons we can all identify with. We are concerned about people who are struggling to keep things together in our fast-paced world – and we care about those who have no support. We chose the Doorstep Homeless Family Project because they are passionate and effective yet they are a small team with limited funding. They provide homeless families, living in temporary accommodation in London, with access to services to secure the emotional and practical support they require to enjoy a better quality of life.
London Youth work to improve the lives of young people in London, challenging them to become the best they can be, and last year helped over 27,000 young people through their sports development, youth action and involvement, arts and outdoor education programmes, and employment prospects. We feel strongly that all young people should have an opportunity to develop themselves, and so are delighted to be able to support London Youth in their work, providing young people with access to opportunities they might not otherwise have had, to learn new skills, to make a positive change in their communities and to shape the city they live in.
