Our Vision, Mission and Values

The Surrey Care Trust’s Vision is to transform the life chances and aspirations of local people who are marginalised by disadvantage or lack of opportunity, or who need a second chance.

Our Mission

The Surrey Care Trust will tackle disadvantage, social exclusion and hardship in local communities. We will reach out to people to equip them with the skills to improve their economic situation, to reduce their social isolation and to convince them that they have a valuable contribution to make to society.

We will achieve this by:

Offering immediate help to people in great financial need.

Helping people to help themselves for the longer term by providing life-changing opportunities through education and training.

Running innovative programmes designed to keep disaffected and vulnerable young people in education, either at mainstream school or at one of our own learning centres, so that they achieve the skills and self-confidence they need for a successful and fulfilling life.

Offering second chance learning and training to people of all ages whose lack of skills limits their opportunities and leaves them economically vulnerable. Making training and education programmes available to offenders and ex-offenders, both to improve their own life chances and to create safer communities by helping to reduce re-offending.

Being active in identifying local needs and open to working in partnership with other organisations, so we can respond to those needs quickly and creatively.

We are committed to giving people a second, often a third or fourth chance of achieving and developing new skills and we are open to those who have experienced much failure and rejection in the past.
We are passionate about providing the opportunities throughout life for positive change that learning and personal development can bring.
We treat all the people we work with in a caring, non-judgmental way, sensitive to the fact that they are often living in vulnerable and difficult situations.

We strive for the highest levels of efficiency, effectiveness and integrity in the delivery of our work and in fundraising for the charitable income that is essential to sustain it.
