Investing responsibly. Supporting independence. Strengthening our region.

At South Yorkshire Pensions Authority, we invest to deliver long‑term, stable returns for our members - but we also look for opportunities to create positive impact in our region.

This supported living scheme in South Yorkshire is a great example of that in action.

Working with our partner Henley, we’re helping provide high‑quality homes for adults with additional needs, enabling independence and community.

In this video, you’ll hear from the people who make it all happen - from the investment team to the property managers, frontline staff and residents themselves.

A reminder that good investment can deliver more than financial returns. It can change lives.
