Growing Communities aims to provide affordable, sustainable products and services and decent livelihoods, rather than generate excessive profits for others. We aim to be profitable, but surpluses are used for wider benefit rather than just enriching individuals. We also aim to be resilient in ourselves, seeking to be financially sustainable and as independent of external funding as possible. We have a legal form, organisational structure and mission statement that ensures the principles we believe in are built into our work regardless of changes to membership, staff, committee or trustees.
