Inspiring Active Lifestyles
Our Mission
Making a positive difference to our communities by inspiring active lifestyles for all.
The values that underpin our culture
We have four overarching values which underpin our culture; our planning and decision-making processes. They provide the link to our charitable objectives.
Our customers. Our colleagues. Our communities. Quite simply, people are at the heart of everything we do.
People First
We empower our customers to take control of their wellbeing, focusing on the diverse needs of our communities and developing our people to be the best they can.
Empowerment
Good health and wellbeing start in our communities, and we collaborate with great local partners to deliver the best offerings.
Community Focus
We believe the environment and an individual’s wellbeing are interlinked, and we’re committed to protecting the planet for future generations.
Caring for our Environment
Circadian Trust Strategic Plan 2023–2028
Our New Horizons Strategy outlines our commitment to deliver, develop and improve, while inspiring our customers, communities and partners. Developed through consultation with our stakeholders and partners across South Gloucestershire Council, health services and the local VCSE sector, it reflects the needs and aspirations of the communities we serve.
