**About British Land**

Our portfolio of high quality UK commercial property is focused on London Campuses
and Retail & London Urban Logistics. We own or manage a portfolio valued at £13.0bn(
British Land share: £8.9bn) as at 31 March 2023 making us one of Europe’s largest
listed real estate investment companies.

We create Places People Prefer, delivering the best, most sustainable places for
our customers and communities. Our strategy is to leverage our best in class platform
and proven expertise in development, repositioning and active management, investing
behind two key themes: Campuses and Retail & London Urban Logistics.

Our three Campuses at Broadgate, Paddington Central and Regent’s Place are dynamic
neighbourhoods, attracting growth customers and sectors, and offering some of the
best connected, highest quality and most sustainable space in London. We are delivering
our fourth Campus at Canada Water, where we have planning consent to deliver 5m 
sq ft of residential, commercial, retail and community space over 53 acres. Our 
Campuses account for 63% of our portfolio.

Retail & London Urban Logistics accounts for 37% of the portfolio and is focused
on retail parks which are aligned to the growth of convenience, online and last 
mile fulfilment. We are complementing this with urban logistics primarily in London,
focused on development-led opportunities.

Sustainability is embedded throughout our business. Our approach is focused on three
key pillars where British Land can create the most benefit: Greener Spaces, making
our whole portfolio net zero carbon by 2030, Thriving Places, making a long-lasting,
positive social impact in our communities, and Responsible Choices, advocating responsible
business practices across British Land and throughout our supply chain, and maintaining
robust governance structures.
