our approach

---

Adorn embeds reciprocity - give and take - into our business and social impact model with the purpose of highlighting alternative ways of measuring viability and success, that go above and beyond monetary transactions or dependency on pure altruism. This exchange is important to how we operate because, modern day treatment of / on this planet has shown that, what is given freely, can often be undervalued or harmfully exploited. We want to help re-establish balance.

We recognise and appreciate that anyone can make a valuable contribution. That's why we encourage and enable others to co-operate with us. Our time bank members / volunteers can support us, themselves, their communities and each other, using their time as a currency. Doing so will give them access to products, services and resources, in return.
