Each part of Minstead Trust works towards achieving our vision for neuro disabled people.
Our Vision: Every neuro disabled person can get the support they need to live life their way.
This vision is the goal for all our work. The focus of this work is described through our mission:
Our Mission: We will work alongside neuro disabled people and their communities to provide local support, reach those without funding, and grow to improve social care more widely.
This is underpinned by our values, which set out how we approach our work.
Our values
- We appreciate each person. Everyone is different – we respect and celebrate this.
- We’re always learning. We all have something to offer and more to learn.
- We’re always improving. Striving to give our best and to have more impact.
- We push for change. We will challenge society to be fully inclusive.
- We find the joy in everyday life. We have the freedom to be ourselves and enjoy what we do.
These guiding principles make sure that we stay completely focused on what we are trying to achieve and work towards it in a way that is true to the unique values and history of Minstead Trust.
What we mean by ‘neuro disabled people’
This includes people with learning disabilities, autistic people, people with acquired brain injuries, people with neurodevelopmental conditions, and others whose lives are affected by the way society responds to neurodisability.
