About Living our Values The purpose of this section is to allow all our stakeholders to see how we are measuring up to the high standards outlined by the Scott Trust which owns us. These values were originally laid out by CP Scott in an article celebrating the Manchester Guardian's centenary. The site also gives you, our readers, the opportunity to become actively involved in editorial campaigns you feel passionate about, enabling you to donate money and resources, whilst ensuring that you are kept informed. |
