Values

Values

The original charity deeds were founded on Christian principles. This ethos is still important to the trustees of the PLR Trust and we are motivated by this in the charities that we support.

Relationship building - Connecting - People orientated

As trustees we value building relationships between individuals and wider communities. In light of this, we support projects that understand the needs of communities and how and why it is important to connect people and encourage inclusion. We have particular but not exclusive interest in working with organisations that support the elderly, those in financial difficulties, the disabled, children and refugees. We are also committed to building a rapport with the charities that we support and engage with developing their projects.

Making a difference - Sustainable change - Large and Small

We believe in long term sustainable impact. We support ideas that not only make a difference in people’s lives but are able to run without our financial aid in the future. Additionally, we support projects that promote building positive and sustainable environmental futures. These projects operate in international, regional or local contexts. Furthermore, we value ideas that make a difference not just for the official beneficiaries, but also for the running of the project.

Trust - Integrity - Honesty - Accountability

We value honesty in order to build our trust in different projects and work with organisations that have a clear decision making structure. We support organisations that provide accountability for funding received and demonstrate how this is positively impacting the project as a whole.

Creative - Imaginative - Interesting

As a Trust, we value the importance of being creative and thinking imaginatively. In light of this, we support projects which have innovative and authentic ideas for bringing about positive change in the world.
