Sustainability.
Our Sustainability Strategy
Our purpose is simple; we’re here to realise people’s ambitions by making finance work. Hand in hand with our vision - to be the most valued lending company in the UK – we’re set on the kind of future we want to create.
To make sure we hold ourselves responsible in the right ways, we have laid out four Sustainability Pillars that act as our guidance and guardrails in everything we do; Our Colleagues, Customers, Communities and Planet.
Since Together was founded in 1974, we’ve helped thousands of customers achieve their property ambitions. We couldn’t have opened that many doors without being so proudly people-focused; we truly believe that taking a human, common-sense approach to lending is how we make an impact. And our Sustainability Strategy is no different.
It’s common sense that we change the way we operate our business to protect the future of the planet; it’s common sense that we support our communities to thrive; it’s common sense that we enable our customers to live more energy efficiently, and it’s common sense that we have a diverse and inclusive workforce.

Our Sustainability Pillars
The sustainability landscape continues to evolve – for both individuals, and the finance industry. As we continue to embed sustainability into our business, we make sure our decision making is driven by the four strategy pillars; Our Colleagues, Our Customers, Our Communities and Our Planet.
Through the pillars, we’re able to align our Sustainability Strategy to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) Framework1 – a 17 point plan as part of ‘a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future’.
