Our pledge.

Together, we are making the ethical move for transparent, responsible and honest marketing.

This pledge is designed for us to start a conversation about manipulation in marketing, challenge our assumptions about how we sell, and take a stand against unethical practices… together.

It is still unfamiliar territory and will need a lot of unpacking. So, we encourage reaching out to us and sharing what you see.

Thank you for being here. It means the world to us.

I am making the Ethical Pledge as we have being 'real' as one of our core values – this means being authentic. We are providing the world's first across-the-spectrum neurodivergent-friendly holiday let and we ensure all of our photos reflect the property accurately, as do the claims we make about it being psychologically and scientifically designed to be sensory underloaded – so what you see and expect to feel is what you get. While we all expect authenticity, a need for fairness and justice runs deep in the veins of the neurodivergent, so ethical marketing is absolutely essential for our values as a business and our guests.

How to make the ethical move.

We are creating resources to

show you how to uphold your pledge
make you aware of what the most common psychological tactics are (and why they are harmful), and
equip you to make ethical decisions in your marketing.

Here is our original tactics list, which we will be expanding based on our research and your suggestions.
