We’re driven by our values
It’s heartbreaking living within systems that put profit above people and planet. We want to reduce the harm we do as much as possible and support regenerative solutions. We believe the way we does business has the potential to make lasting change. Are you a social enterprise, activist or NGO? Get in touch to hear about our discounted rates.
We know it’s not easy working for yourself, we’re doing it too! We value open communication and efficient organisation to work at a pace that suits your professional and personal needs. During our time together, if you have any special requirements due to chronic illness, disability or extenuating circumstances then let us know and we’ll do our best to make sure your needs are met.
We understand the privileges we have as two cis white women born in the UK and are committed to doing what we can to always adapt and learn within our business to make our work more accessible, inclusive, trauma aware, anti-racist and informed by intersectional Feminism. Some adaptations we can make where neededed include payment plans and reduced prices for clients in the Global South.
We encourage lifting each other up, delighting in each other’s skills and promoting collaborative projects. Cultivating community lights us up and is central to what we do and our way of thinking. We don’t forget about you once a project is finished, and if we hear of anyone looking for your services/products we will refer them to you!
The word ‘Ardea’ symbolises the determination of following your own path with a balance between structure and flow. Full story on the blog
