The values that underpin our organisation are:

• A belief that everyone has something to offer, young, old, employed, unemployed, etc.
• A belief that small is beautiful and that by keeping the scheme local, trust between members can flourish
• Concern for the environment
• By trading without money, we put people before profit
• A desire to build a community spirit through helping each other out
• We are a democratic organisation that encourages everyone to participate
