What we do

Each Right in our Charter becomes work on the ground. Some of it is live. Most of it is still to come. We mark each one honestly.

Right 1

Food, clothing, warmth, hygiene and support towards safe shelter.

Right 2

Right to Health

A body cared for through medical relief, nutrition and yoga.

Why health matters to happiness: an illness can push a family into poverty, while good health keeps people earning, learning and caring. Health is one of the surest ways out of poverty.
