Prospect's Values

 

Legal and Civil Rights

We are committed to ensuring that the people who use our services have their legal and civil rights met. These include rights to vote, marry, have a family, express opinions and to be protected from abuse.

 

Independence

We will promote the independence of our service users. This means that we will assume that a person is independent rather than dependent. The support that we provide will always aim to increase independence.

 

Choice

We believe everyone should be given the chance to make informed choices and take control of their life. This includes making choices about where to live, who to live with, who provides support, where to go to work and how to take part in the local community.

 

Inclusion

We will enable people to do ordinary things, make use of mainstream services and to be involved in the community.

 

Individuality

We will treat everyone as an individual. This involves listening, maintaining privacy and dignity and treating everyone with respect.

 

Communication

We recognise that people communicate in a variety of ways and will ensure that appropriate and relevant methods are used to enable people to communicate.
