Your Role in the Community
Becoming a British citizen or settling in the UK is an important step. It brings you new opportunities, but it also comes with responsibilities. Being part of a community means you can make it a better place to live and work.
Values and Responsibilities
Britain is a very diverse country. This means people from many different backgrounds live here. However, there are some shared values and responsibilities that everyone can agree on. Here are some important ones:
- Obey and Respect the Law: Always follow the rules and laws of the country. For example, do not steal or harm others.
- Respect the Rights of Others: Everyone has rights, and it is important to acknowledge and respect them. For example, if someone has a different religion, you should allow them to practice it freely.
- Treat Others with Fairness: Be fair to everyone. If you are playing a game, let everyone have a turn.
- Behave Responsibly: Take care of your actions. If you make a mistake, admit it and try to fix it.
- Help and Protect Your Family: Support your family members. For example, help younger siblings with their homework.
- Respect and Preserve the Environment: Take care of your surroundings. This can mean recycling or not littering.
- Treat Everyone Equally: No matter their sex, race, religion, age, disability, class, or sexual orientation, everyone should be treated the same. This includes being kind and considerate to all.
- Work to Provide for Yourself and Your Family: Try to earn a living to take care of yourself and your loved ones.
- Help Others: If a neighbour needs help, offer to assist them.
- Vote in Elections: Participate in local and national elections to have a say in how your community is run.
By accepting and practicing these values, you can become a full and active citizen in your community.
