Liberty - Protecting civil liberties, promoting human rights

COMMON
VALUES

We believe in fundamental rights and freedoms - shared values that protect every member of the human family and the society we seek to build together.

Human rights are about dignity, equality and respect. These values are common to us all no matter how different we may seem.

In the UK the Human Rights Act protects us all - old and young, rich and poor, you and me.


Help us increase respect and understanding for human rights values.
