Our Social Values
Inclusivity, sustainability, & community engagement.
At Its Children, social values are implemented with a strong emphasis on inclusivity, sustainability, and community engagement, all while adhering to British English preferences.
Employment and Community Support
Local Employment
Its Children Limited prioritises hiring locally, ensuring that community members contribute directly to the care and development of children. This strengthens economic ties and fosters trust between the organisation and families it serves.
Employing all ethnicities
Inclusivity is central to Its Children Limited’s hiring practices. A diverse team provides children with exposure to a variety of cultures, fostering early appreciation for equality and respect for differences.
Employing Young People
Collaborating with job centres and educational institutions, Its Children Limited offers apprenticeships and entry-level roles. This initiative supports young people, particularly those not in education, employment, or training, to gain valuable skills and career opportunities.
Sustainability and Environmental Responsibility
Protecting the Environment
The organisation incorporates sustainable practices such as using eco-friendly materials, reducing waste, and encouraging recycling in everyday activities. Children are taught the importance of these practices as part of their learning.
Reducing Carbon Footprint
Its Children Limited sources supplies locally and encourages staff to use green transportation options like cycling or carpooling. These measures minimise environmental impact and promote sustainable living.
Engaging with Local Communities
Partnerships with Schools, Colleges, & Volunteers
The organisation partners with local schools and colleges to run educational workshops and work experience programmes. Volunteers, including parents and retired professionals, are also encouraged to participate, enriching the learning environment for children.
Jobcentre Engagement
Its Children Limited collaborates with job centres to provide training and employment opportunities, particularly for individuals returning to the workforce. This includes flexible working arrangements for parents or carers.
