Doing things with residents, not to them
Our philosophy is to enhance civic life by empowering residents to change their own neighbourhoods for the better. That includes giving residents a leading role in developing policy in public, with the public.
We believe that, if we do this, residents themselves can often change things for the better, and do it faster than anyone else.
We know we'll succeed if we bring people together and work with them to tackle what holds us back. That includes supporting people so everyone has a fair chance to be heard and to take part.
