Our retail partnerships have helped local vendors like speciality cafe and wine bar BloomsYard grow from an early-stage lockdown business to a thriving chain across six prime locations in London. Swipe to see what founder Bharti Radix had to say about how British Land championed BloomsYard's journey from day one. Through our Really Local Stores programme, we have been providing affordable retail space, expert support and flexible commercial terms to help early-stage local businesses overcome resource barriers and kickstart their success. Our Really Local stores report, published in collaboration with the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), shows how giving small businesses like BloomsYard space to grow isn’t just good for them – it makes commercial sense for landlords, local economies and communities too.

Our Campus Community Funds are working to deliver social impact, in the last two years bringing over £170,000 to charities to support social mobility, employment skills and core organisational costs in charities.

An exciting time for our Regent’s Place campus, as we last night secured planning approval for the redevelopment of Euston Tower. Our plans will transform this unique building into c.560,000 sq ft of premium workspace and public realm, right at the heart of London’s Knowledge Quarter, home to Europe’s growing tech ecosystem. The tower will create a new focal point in the skyline, comprising 19,000 sq ft floor plates, 360-degree views across central London, terraces and shared amenity spaces for collaboration, helping businesses to network, generate ideas and launch products. https://lnkd.in/dunv8YHy #CommitAndCollaborate #Workspace #EustonTower

Incorporating sustainable practices into the built environment doesn't happen overnight. For more than a decade, 199 Bishopsgate at our Broadgate campus has undergone a series of transformations to enhance its energy performance and reduce carbon reliance, ensuring that our occupiers can benefit from dynamic, energy efficient, and environmentally conscious buildings for longer. Over the years, our 'rolling retrofit' approach to 199 Bishopsgate elevated the building's Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating from D to A, showcasing the long-term success of these innovations. Take a look at the history of our sustainability upgrades and their impact over a 12-year commitment. #BuildingDesign #Retrofit British Land Workspace
