We are an efficient and effective organisation
Fairness
We believe that all citizens regardless of abilities, needs or diversity should be treated equally.
Partnership
We aim to work with and alongside our clients, not to do things to or for them. We also strive to work closely with other organisations who further the cause of our clients in the local community.
Competence
It is our duty to develop skill and competence so that we can effectively support and advise our clients.
Diversity
We respect and value the diverse community within which we operate. We also strive to work closely with other organisations
We are the only organisation locally who will also help people in their own homes, which is often the only way those most at need can access help to get benefits that will keep them independent and out of care homes or hospital.
Many of our staff, volunteers and trustees have a disability themselves or care for someone with a disability and so understand the barriers disabled people can face. With the complex changes in the welfare benefits system, our services are more in demand than ever.
