Today you’re told, 'Don’t do this' and 'You can’t say that.'
It seems everywhere you step is the wrong direction.
What if there were higher philosophy to guide you?
In the middle ages, a Knight was expected to have the strength and skills to face combat and expected to temper this with strict rules of etiquette and conduct.
The Knight’s Code introduced the concept of Chivalrous conduct - bravery, courtesy, honesty, valour, loyalty and gallantry toward women.
It was a moral system which went beyond rules.
The SHAIR.care Code is a higher philosophy that we hold ourselves to.
