Community is at our heart. Inspired by the ideals and vision of the philosophical, ethical, and social principles of Dr. Rudolf Steiner and Dr. Karl Koenig, we believe in the power of intentional community as a vehicle to serve those in need. Our ethos and practice is enshrined in a deep commitment to community benefit. Central to our purpose are our core values:
Recognising the individual
We strive to value each individual and understand their unique contribution to the whole. In our community, everyone is seen, heard and appreciated for who they are and supported and encouraged to grow and develop.
A focus on community
We believe that true health and well-being stem from a sense of community, inclusion and belonging. Our company is a home where everyone is welcomed and supported to thrive. Social relationships are recognised as a powerful force for healing and we encourage individuals to contribute to the wellbeing of others while having their own needs met.
Promoting diversity
We celebrate diversity in spiritual, cultural and social ideals. Our community is enriched by the unique perspectives and contributions of individuals from all walks of life and we encourage people of all faiths, cultures, gender, sexual orientations, age or ability to join us in our endeavours. Our community is inclusive and welcoming to people of all faiths and none. We aspire to values of tolerance, respect and social inclusion in everything we do.
Shared and empowered decision making
We believe in inclusive decision-making processes that involve and empower our members. By fostering a culture of collaboration and shared responsibility we want to ensure everyone has a voice in shaping the direction of our community.
Relationships and Shared Responsibility
We actively seek partnerships and collaborations that support existing community networks and social or spiritual initiatives. By working together with others who share our values, we can support and strengthen our community and those involved in it.
An active and vibrant cultural life
Our community offers a lively mix of therapeutic, cultural, and community-building activities that align with our social and spiritual ideals. From self-development groups to cultural events, we aim to nourish all aspects of being through the year, the seasons and our daily life.
"The healthy social life is found, when in the mirror of each human soul, the whole community finds its reflection and when in the community, the strength of each one is living” - Rudolf Steiner
