Transparency
Our Policy is one of transoarency regarding our fees, income and expenditure.
We recognise that in areas of the community development it is offen a fact that those who might most benefit from our services might be least able to afford consultancy fees.
We also accept that the process of engaging consultants might be totally alien to many of those that we seek to help.
We know that 'knowledge is power' and that like wealth it is not necessarily available where it is needed.
Therefore we are committed to an equitable approach to the distribution of knowlaege and empowerment.
