The values of an organisation look back in terms of reflecting its origins, the present - its ethical framework and also look forward as determinants of policies. They distinguish an organisation from others. Here are ours:
RESPECT - respecting human rights and dignity
INTEGRITY - ensuring the integrity of practitioner-client relationships
KNOWLEDGE - enhancing the quality of professional knowledge and its application
ENABLING CHILDREN - to develop emotionally, socially and academically to their full potential
ALLEVIATING - personal distress and suffering
SENSE OF SELF - fostering a sense of self that is meaningful to the person(s) concerned
INCREASING PERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS - of clients and practitioners
ENHANCING THE QUALITY OF RELATIONSHIPS - between children and children and adults
DIVERSITY - appreciating the variety of human experience and culture
EQUITABLE & ADEQUATE PROVISION - of therapeutic play, creative arts therapies and filial play for children and their parents
QUALITY MANAGEMENT - consciously applying quality management and clinical governance principles to all therapeutic work
ENTREPRENURIAL SPIRIT - encouraging individuality, innovation, development of a sustainable and efficient organisation; establishing reward systems and incentives appropriate to a caring profession; fostering a ‘can do’ rather than a ‘can’t do’ attitude
