The Lasting Difference ethos is firmly embedded in Starcatchers’ work ethic with its principles guiding the organisation’s approach to growth and evolution and informing some decision-making during 2020’s many lockdown challenges.

The company already sees significant benefits as a result and looks forward to 2021 as a launch pad for sustainable development in the company’s purpose in the years to come.
