bobu values
shaping everything we do
We believe in people. We believe in change. We believe in a world where differences aren’t just celebrated but actively protected through community action.
Asking for help is an act of courage and vulnerability, especially when you don’t know what the reaction will be. Knowing you’re walking into a space where your identity is held, respected and protected can sometimes quite literally be the difference between life and death.
At bobu we work with local businesses and organisations, empowering them to create safe spaces for everyone who needs support. By 2030 we aim to have a network of like minded individuals and teams in place up and down the UK and beyond, creating a safer, kinder and more connected world.
