Making Hope a Reality
What does our new strategy commit us to achieve over the next 3 years?
Everyone should have the opportunity to achieve their dreams and ambitions. Hopes can be ‘in reach’ but also can be ‘out of sight’. At Phoenix we walk alongside people, use our experiences and our learning to nurture relationships and serve people as best we can.
That hasn’t always been an easy thing to do. It has meant we have spoken out for the rights of people to get access to the support they need, or developed new forms of treatment to support people where they are. It has meant forging relationships with other organisations to develop services or give voice to people’s needs.
This strategy focuses Phoenix on helping people to reach their goals and ambitions but also see their own potential and talents.
Making Hope A Reality has 3 areas of focus:
- Support our workforce to be sector leading by providing excellent training and career development opportunities as well as support and recognition.
- Develop new approaches to meet people’s needs because we don’t believe anyone should be denied access to effective treatment.
- Use our expertise to create equity of access to treatment because we know it saves lives.
