We are honest, inclusive and fair. We are independent and impartial and we make decisions on merit.
We review complaints in a proportionate, timely and fair way, using our insight to develop and promote good practice. We have a professional and committed staff team.
We are clear, transparent and accessible in all that we say and do.
We treat all who engage with us with respect and sensitivity. We listen, reflect, and learn, being flexible and responsive to those who use our service and working continuously to improve what we do.
We are committed to understanding the sector and to sharing knowledge.
We believe strongly in equality and diversity and we promote it through our work and as an employer.
