      Our identity

      Independent

      Independent

      We’re often asked what ‘denomination’ we’re a part of. But we’re not linked to a specific denomination or church — instead, we work with all denominations and partners of many kinds. This enables us to respond to identified needs, wherever they may be. Our independence means that rather than following others, we are positioned to lead.

      home-care-icon6

      Christian

      We serve people of all faiths and none. Our work is motivated by the Christian values expressed in the words and deeds of Jesus Christ.

      “... whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” Matthew 25:40

      These ancient words call us to show the same love, compassion and respect to anyone who needs us, without discrimination.

      Help-2

      Charity

      As a charity, we have always been motivated by values and purpose rather than profit. But that doesn’t mean we’re careless with resources. Instead, we’re responsible stewards for the public benefit. It’s our mission and privilege to understand and address needs, and we continue to take necessary risks to help those in need.

      Towards Next Chapter

      After thorough review and consultation, we developed the Next Chapter Strategy that helps fulfil our Mission as we head toward 2025. Here is a snapshot of what we plan to achieve:

      • Relationship-based care for those others can’t or won’t help
      • Improving evidence-based care practices
      • Measuring our impact on peoples’ lives
      • Shaping the sector through stories of care
