The difference we're making

Birchwood is not an organisation that stands still. We want to deliver high quality projects and services that really make a difference to the individuals and communities that we serve.

We regularly consult with our residents, clients, staff and stakeholders to help shape our work and to capture the impact that we have.

This culture of continuous improvement can be seen in the way that services change and evolve as they grow. 

As an important part of this process we also seek external evaluation from organisations such as Investors in People (IIP), SELLNET and The King’s Fund to demonstrate our commitment to quality standards.
