Capital Shopping Centres Group PLC is a business founded on people and places. ‘Partnerships’ are important and the key ‘partnership’ is the highly visible relationship between our wide-ranging CR engagement and the primary needs of our business.
Our ninth Corporate Responsibility (CR) report contains information on the full range of CR initiatives carried on throughout the Capital Shopping Centres Group and should be read in conjunction with the 2010 Annual Report for detailed information on how the Group addresses corporate governance including information on compliance with the Combined Code on Corporate Governance.
Our report covers activities for the year to 31 December 2010. We have brought data in line with the statutory reporting period. Previously, we have reported shopping centre statistical information for the 12 months to 30 September annually, but improved collection and analysis enables us to provide data for the corporate financial year. Where necessary we have restated 2009 figures for the purposes of comparison. In compiling this report, we have informally applied best practice guidance, including that from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI-G3), Association of British Insurers (ABI), Department of the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), DECC (Department of Energy & Climate Change) and Business in the Community (BitC). This report and all KPIs associated with it are subject to external verification by Bureau Veritas.
