Relate's Mission Statement
Relate’s role is to help people build better relationships
Relate believes that
Relate’s role is to help people build better relationships
- To enhance the quality of couple and parental family relationships.
- To help relationships, marriages and civil partnerships withstand the pressures leading to breakdown.
- To limit the damage which commonly accompanies failing relationships, separation and divorce and increase the prospect of subsequent relationships succeeding.
Relate believes that
- An individual’s physical well-being and emotional and mental health benefit from a committed relationship.
- Children thrive in families where relationships are positive and free from destructive conflict.
- People gain from an understanding of their sexuality.
Equal Opportunities.
We operate fully within an equal opportunities policy and promote anti-discriminatory practice. We see any family, individual or couple who would like to improve a relationship or who would like to part amicably or to maintain a functioning relationship as parents even if they are no longer partners.
Our definition of 'family' is a group of related, married, co-habiting or other people who call themselves such.
