We want radical change: Constantly striving for an overhaul of the way we live and work – we don’t believe small tweaks work. We will work with politicians, employers, collaborators and the public to achieve this.

We translate complexity and make it simple: Ensuring our beneficiaries understand complex legal language, policy, data, research and legislation that could impact them both positively and negatively

The lived experience of the people we support provides insight and informs everything we do: Leaving ourselves room to be reactive to issues, opportunities and campaigns as they arise is critical. Our experience and expertise ensure we can identify important campaigns and projects. 

Create and nurture a deep and strong connection with our beneficiaries/community: Not only providing our beneficiaries but ensuring we include them in every element of our work. Ensuring PTS feels like a friend and confidant, and makes our beneficiaries feel as though they are part of the team. Talking to our beneficiaries as we would talk to a friend.

To be the voice of working mothers we need to listen, always: Being willing to adapt and iterate based on feedback from our beneficiaries, and we always listen no matter how uncomfortable it may be. We don’t think we always know best!

We will challenge and be provocative to create change: Not being afraid to show our anger. We believe anger is a mechanism for change. We will, on occasion, campaign on and talk about the issues that others are too nervous to discuss
