About The Big Life Group
The Big Life Group’s mission is to fight for equity, in health, in wealth and in life. We are a social business delivering a range
of services across the North of England, covering everything from mental and physical health, addiction and criminal justice, to
housing, education, family support and much more. What links them together is the way we work – The Big Life Way.
We always stand shoulder-to shoulder with people, working with them on the things that matter most to them. Everything we do is
designed and informed by the needs, priorities and strengths of people and communities.
Our values
* Courage: We stand up for ourselves, and the people and communities we work alongside, even when that makes us unpopular, or
challenges accepted wisdom.
* Creativity: We find innovative solutions that work, never accepting the easy option or the status quo.
* Honesty: We act with integrity, speaking the truth to ourselves and others.
* Inspiration: We are inspired by the people and communities we work with and share what we learn from them to inspire others.
* Thoughtful: We act with care and compassion and work to understand people’s experiences. We take time to listen, reflect and
continually learn.
* Valuing difference: We recognise and celebrate the unique qualities, gifts, insights and perspectives that different people
offer.
