b.    Secondly, to deliver community restitution through support services targeting critical sectors requiring healing, stress management and wellness assistance, including teachers, police and nurses, as well as supporting home-based care, hospice, old age homes, township clinics and social services networks.

c.    Thirdly, to operate a corporate procurement program delivering wellness solutions to enhance companies EAP programs, rewarding staff through wellness days, incentives and events, in line with the most popular intervention programs worldwide (on-site massage).

d.    Fourth, to set up  aligned wellness projects and to operate a network of wellness establishments nationally to support the objectives of the Trust, based on principles of healing lifestyles and ahimsa (non-violence) using a  Consciousness–based Education approach (CBE model).
