we work well in partnerships with our beneficiaries to campaign human challenges experienced in the community

We don’t live this when:

we promote campaign alone without involving our beneficiaries
we discourage, avoid or dismiss feedback
we make little or no effort to understand the perspective of others

Honesty: -

Doing what is right:We are fair, open and transparent.

Acting with integrity and not misleading the public about our campaign or the way our campaign sales would be donated to our beneficiaries.

Behaviours

We live this when:

we challenge the status quo where we can make a difference to people lives
we are not afraid to take a considered risk
we encourage and champion new ideas
we think long term and embrace sustainability

We don’t live this when:

we act within our comfort zones
we dismiss alternative ideas and discourage others from suggesting new ways of working
we make poorly planned decisions that don’t the future of the community into account
we ignore problems and challenges instead of addressing them
