✨✨Our New Mission Statement
We are extremely proud to share our newly refreshed mission statement:
“At Hesley Group, we put people we support first. We help every person to stay safe, feel supported, and achieve their dreams.”
Over the last few months, we undertook a meaningful and inclusive process to ensure our mission reflects the voices of the people who matter most, people we support, their families, and our colleagues. Here’s how we shaped the final statement:
🙋♂️🙋♀️ People we support took part in a dedicated focus group, supported by Speech and Language Therapists and Therapy Assistants. They helped us understand what language felt respectful, meaningful, and important, especially around staying safe, being supported, and achieving dreams.
📝 Colleagues and families contributed through an organisation-wide poll, highlighting the importance of putting people first, supporting aspirations, and helping individuals thrive.
🦻We listened closely to what words felt right and what did not. The term “people we support” was strongly preferred, and we removed language that did not resonate.
By bringing these voices together, we created a mission statement that is clear, warm, and true to who we are as an organisation.
We are excited to embed this mission into everything we do, across our services, our culture, and our future.💙💚
Thank you to everyone who contributed. This mission belongs to all of us.
