**about asphaleia**

asphaleia started with four staff all sharing a passion for meeting the needs of children and young people and a willingness to take a risk

From those beginnings, asphaleia now comprises a limited company and a registered international charity. These operate as four ventures. We use the word venture because it carries the sense of adventure that has led us on our unique and fascinating journey. The three different ventures sitting within the company are; care, fostering and training. asphaleia action, our charity has been pioneering new projects to meet ever increasing needs of young people both in the UK and internationally for almost 20 years.

**our mission**

The asphaleia mission is simple - **to impact as many lives of children and young people who have experienced disadvantage as we can**. We believe it is a simple, but very powerful mission that drives forward every aspect of our delivery and ensures we place children and young people at the heart of everything we do.

**our values**

Our values are summed up by three simple principles and these, when in action, create the asphaleia way of doing things.

When working with children and young people, other professionals or colleagues we believe service and co-operation can only begin to be achieved to a high standard by **considering the world of others**.

However, we believe it is not enough to solely believe the world of others matters - this is only a starting place. The asphaleia group believe in **demonstrating our value** of those we deliver services to, those who pay for our services and those we work with in every possible way.

Finally, we believe we should **aim to do everything well**. We realise excellence is a journey and not a finitely achievable thing. Therefore even when we have done something well we should then aim to do it even better
