Our Strategic Direction

At BDS our vision is: People belong, develop and succeed

Our strategic objective is that we facilitate a responsive and inclusive environment that supports connections, opportunities and achievement of goals.

To support our strategy, on 20th September 2023 we announced the project: Building BDS’s future. 'Project Build' for short.

Project Build is progressing well. The project has a clear mandate with support from the Board, our project teams are in place, we have been communicating with key stakeholders, and running workshops and working meetings.

At the core of everything we do on the project, we’ll continue to focus on quality, and put our participants first. And also continue to listen to, work with, and support our participants, families and staff.

Project Build’s vision is to Build BDS’s future.  To do this we have four objectives:

  1. PROFIT AND VIABILITY

  2. BUILDING BDS’S BRAND

  3. INCREASE IN CLIENT NUMBERS

  4. INCREASE IN CLIENT HOURS

This project is building on our strong foundations of our people, our community relationships, and the trust and loyalty of our participants and families, stakeholders, staff, local community adn commercial partners. The project is also overcoming challenges that have dragged on since Covid 19.

Project Build will continue the great work already being done, and focus on improving BDS’s programs for participants, improving communication and marketing, and supporting more participants into the future. 

with warm regards
