Our Culture

Making Space has always valued the immense dedication of everyone who works with us and the amazing energy they put into every single day.

Motivation is never an issue, but there are six key values we always work towards - the “Six Commitments of Making Space”:

• Focus on our Customers  
We make sure everyone accessing Making Space services is actively engaged in their planning, design, delivery and evaluation.
 
• Embrace Diversity  
We strive to create a productive environment where individual differences and talents are valued and where everyone feels inspired to get involved in achieving our mutual vision and goals.

• Work in Partnership  
We listen to and respect all of the thousands of people who we work with and for.
 
• Strive for Excellence  
We demand the highest possible standards and integrity of our team, always following quality working practises and putting the people who access our services at the heart of everything we do.

• Be Innovative   
We challenge conventional ways of working and look for continual improvement in the services we provide.

• Make a difference  
Our work is both worthwhile and inspiring and generates a commitment and enthusiasm which benefits of all the people who engage with us. 

No matter how committed and devoted the Making Space team may be, it’s always nice to be recognised for putting in an effort over and above expectations.

So, for people who’ve demonstrated outstanding practice in any of the ‘Six Commitments’, we’ve introduced the ‘Thank You and Well Done’ programme - a bi-monthly award to reward innovative and inspirational contributions by an individual or team.
