Policy
Participation principles
What people can expect when they take part, and what we ask in return.
Voluntary and informed
Taking part is a choice. Tasks, expectations and risks are explained before anyone is asked to commit.
Respect and safety
Everyone is treated with dignity. Any activity with people at risk will have safeguards set out in its own record before it starts.
Privacy of places and people
We do not publish a private address, or name a person or household, without their agreement. See the property ground rules.
Honest claims
We do not present a proposal as an operating service, or an intention as a result. Corrections are dated on the page; see the source and correction policy.
