Vision, Mission, Aims and Values

Our Vision:

We believe in a better way of life for the women outside of prostitution.

Our Mission:

It is our Christian faith that underpins all we do, we offer friendship, advice and the opportunity of support on a journey towards change. We recognise that these women are often excluded from society, and we seek to cross boundaries and enter into their community.

Our Aims:

We aim to demonstrate God’s unconditional love in the way we treat each woman, offering holistic, ongoing support in order to help them move forward towards safe, whole lives free from prostitution and addiction.

We aim to work alongside other statutory and voluntary agencies in the city to help address and overcome the major issues surrounding prostitution.

We aim to treat each woman with dignity and respect, taking into account the addictive lifestyles and the difficulties that this presents.

Our Values:

· Valuing the Individual: We respect the equality and unique value of every woman and encourage them to fulfil their potential.

· Striving for Excellence: We seek to deliver services of the highest possible quality and constantly improve through listening, reflecting, learning and action.

· Seeking Justice: Working closely with vulnerable and disadvantaged women, we challenge injustice, using our experience and research to achieve change.

· Working in Partnership: Working together with local agencies, churches and other organisations, we place the women’s needs at the heart of our services. In all our relationships, we act with integrity, being open, honest and transparent.

· Investing in People: We value and invest in our staff and volunteers, developing their skills and confidence, creating a supportive culture, inspiring and motivating them to find real meaning and purpose in their roles.

· Opposed to discriminatory practice: We treat every woman equally; respecting and valuing her differences, we actively promote equality and diversity. We never impose our faith and women of all faiths or none are welcome to use our services without discrimination.
