THE VIRTUES PROJECT
Courage, Equality, Compassion, Love, Responsibility, Honesty, Hope, Justice...
The Virtues Project is a character education programme endorsed by the United Nations and used in over 100 countries worldwide. It is growing in popularity in the UK and Tam and Sophie are two of only a handful of UK Master Facilitators.
The programme teaches individuals to recognise the virtues (positive qualities) that exist within all human beings. By acknowledging and calling upon these in ourselves and each other, we learn to potentially transform communication and relationships, communities and culture.
The VP introduces 100 virtues (or 52 in a school setting), and the five strategies that facilitate their use in the most effective ways, for families, educators, businesses, organisations and communities.
Hope in the Heart facilitators use the Virtues as a powerful resource in most of our workshops.

Comments from workshops in UK and South Africa :
"Will teach me to release resentments arising from lack of boundaries – allowing joy, love and grace." UK
"It inspired me to be limitless in terms of positive thinking, acting and giving." SA
"Effectively I think it is the key to compassionate relationships, formal or informal." UK
"it made me want to be a better person and just improve on my inner-self. I liked
how it was so comfortable to voice your thoughts without judgement. SA
"I really appreciate your dedication and creativity in making this learning experience happen." UK
"Please do for others as you have done for us." SA
This training and the facilitator Tam Martin Fowles has absolutely changed my focus on my practice. It has enabled me to open up and broaden my skills base and understanding of effective practice. It has given me a sense of confidence in my communication and empathy with myself, my friends and colleagues and my client group. Every community and society shares this set of virtues, making connectivity and shared language possible. I really cannot rate this training highly enough... UK
