bassac ~ supporting people sustaining communitiesMission and values
Our vision
Our vision is for neighbourhoods in which people can thrive and fulfil their potential, whoever they are and wherever they live.
Our values
- Tackling poverty, exclusion and inequality because we believe in human diversity.
Giving people the power to change things themselves because we believe that citizens can tackle community issues head on. - Developing neighbourhoods that are sustainable in cultural, environmental, economic and social ways because we believe in solutions that endure.
- Raising the voices of local people and organisations because we believe that local people understand community issues best.
- Sharing learning because we believe that by exchanging experience we can confront poverty and inequality.
Our mission
Our mission is to harness the power of working collectively. Through forming and leading partnerships we will allow our members to release the power of community voices and achieve social justice in their neighbourhoods.

Diversity
bassac will actively promote community cohesion and equality of opportunity between people from different cultural and social groups, and for those facing barriers, discrimination and exclusion. This commitment will underpin everything the organisation does. See our full diversity policy for more details.
