Values
We promote personal development and believe in the following principles:
- Every young person has the ability, and right to achieve
- A career or a job is part of person's lifestyle and a child needs to have experiences or insights into different jobs and opportunities and not feel they are only suited to some careers
- Every young person has the right to develop their aspirations and broaden their options for success and happiness in life
- Exploring culture and heritage is essential for deepening knowledge and understanding of the world and your place in it
- Cost effective outcomes for young people are achieved through collaboration with committed businesses whose volunteers are key in providing children with exciting, practical experiences they may not otherwise have
- Celebrating local people, family and community networks is just as important as encouraging young people to be socially mobile
- Projects should extol the value of caring for the environment and should use materials and processes that cause least harm to it
- Play has an essential role in life and learning
- Making an impact on the root cause of a problem is critical to substainable improvement
